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

objectivesIt is unknown when inosine was first employed as a renoprotective agent in the context of kidney transplantation procedures. However, there is no clinical evidence to support a protective role of inosine. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of inosine on graft recovery. PATIENTS AND

methodsData related to donors and recipients were retrieved from relevant records between 2015 and 2023. A total of 1138 kidney transplant cases were identified, including 1005 recipients who received a bolus of 1000 mg inosine and 133 recipients who did not receive inosine during transplantation surgery. The endpoints of the analysis included recipient recovery after transplantation as assessed by delayed graft function (DGF), peak estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after transplantation, and unfavorable graft function recovery.

resultsGiven the high dimensionality of the donor and recipient variables, propensity score weighting analyses were conducted. No significant differences in the risk of DGF (OR = 0.80 [0.52, 1.22],

conclusionsIntraoperative infusion of 1000 mg of inosine has no effect on graft recovery after kidney transplantation. Therefore, the practice of using inosine during kidney transplantation surgery is not supported by evidence.
