Peritoneal Window With Omental Interposition as a Prophylactic Measure to Prevent Post-Renal Transplant Lymphocele: A Pilot Study.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
introductionRenal transplant is considered to be the most optimum treatment option for chronic kidney disease. One common post-operative complication that can compromise the graft function is lymphocele. Despite the technical advances, the incidence of lymphocele is not negligible. Here, we propose the outcomes of peritoneal window and omental interposition as a prophylactic measure to prevent lymphocele occurrence.
methodsThis was a single-centre prospective study conducted at a tertiary care hospital, between June 2021 and June 2023. The study included patients more than 18 years of age who underwent renal transplants. Both live-related and deceased renal transplant recipients were included. The primary endpoint focused on the incidence of symptomatic post-transplant lymphocele necessitating interventional treatment within six months of follow-up.
resultsOut of 50 patients who underwent renal transplants during the study period, only one patient developed lymphocele in the postoperative period.
conclusionProphylactic peritoneal window with omental interposition serves as a promising technique to prevent post-renal transplant lymphocele formation.
