1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Accurate preoperative evaluation of renal function in living kidney donor candidates (LKDCs) is crucial to prevent kidney failure after nephrectomy. We examined the performance of various estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations, including the new chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation in LKDCs. Methods: We analyzed 752 LKDCs who were assessed for measured GFR by inulin clearance as part of routine pretransplant examination from 2006 to 2020. CKD-EPI2012 from cystatin C (CKD-EPI12cys), CKD-EPI2021 from creatinine (CKD-EPI21cr), CKD-EPI21cr-cys, Japanese modified (JPN) eGFRcr, and JPN eGFRcys were compared in determining the suitability for LKDCs. Results: CKD-EPI12cys had the lowest absolute and relative biases, with higher P Conclusions: In evaluating the renal function of Japanese LKDCs, the new CKD-EPI equation had a lower rate of underestimation but a relatively high rate of overestimation. New GFR estimation formulas are needed to be tailored to each ethnic group to enhance the accuracy and reliability of donor selection processes.
