Cumulative rabbit anti-human thymocyte globulin dose to recipient weight during the peri-operative period is an independent risk factor for early postoperative urinary tract infection after kidney transplantation.

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
Anti-human thymocyte globulin-Fresenius (ATG-F) is frequently utilized to achieve successful induction for kidney transplantation recipients. This study aimed to examine the association between the ATG-F dose-to-recipient-weight ratio (ADR) and the risk of developing urinary tract infections (UTIs) following kidney transplantation. Data of kidney transplant recipients who underwent ATG-F-induction peri-operatively in a medical center were retrospectively collected, and the incidence of UTIs during the first postoperative year was also recorded. The risk of UTI associated with ADR was analyzed, and receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn to determine the optimal ADR, followed by Cox regression models. In total, 131 recipients were included, with an UTI incidence of 19.08% and a mean interval of 3.08 months. The optimal ADR was 6.34, involving 41 and 90 patients in the low ADR and high ADR groups, respectively. The UTI-free rate in the low ADR group was significantly higher than that in the high ADR group (
