Comparison of Effect Sevoflurane-Based Anesthesia and Propofol-Based Anesthesia on the Early Postoperative Renal Function of Living Kidney Transplant Donors: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

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
Purpose: Living kidney transplantation is a common treatment for end-stage renal disease. The impact of anaesthetics on postoperative biomarkers of renal injury in living kidney transplant donors is not well understood. Patients and Methods: 70 transplant donors who underwent kidney extraction were randomly assigned to following two groups: sevoflurane (S group) and propofol (P group). Urine and blood were collected before induction and 1, 2, 6 days after operation. Kidney injury marker-1 (KIM-1), interleukin-18 (IL-18) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Record the cystatin C, glomerular filtration rate, urine output during perioperative period. Results: There were both increases in biomarkers of kidney injury before and 1, 2 and 6 days after the anaesthetic surgery in donors, However, no statistical differences in KIM-1 (P (0.42 pg/mL (95% CI 0.21 to 0.63 pg/mL)) vs S (0.26 pg/mL (95% CI 0.02 to 0.49 pg/mL)), -0.16 pg/mL (95% CI -0.48 to 0.16 pg/mL)), IL-18 (P (178.54 pg/mL (95% CI 110.15 to 24693 pg/mL)) vs S (175.86 pg/mL (95% CI 100.35 to 251.38 pg/mL)), -2.68 pg/mL (95% CI -105.61 to 100.25 pg/mL)), and TIMP-2 (P (12.88 ng/mL (95% CI 8.69 to 17.07 ng/mL)) vs S (14.85 ng/mL (95% CI 10.23 to 19.46 ng/mL)), 1.97 ng/mL (95% CI -4.30 to 8.23 ng/mL)) concentration changes between the two types of anaesthesia. Conclusion: There was no difference between sevoflurane and propofol anaesthesia on postoperative changes in biomarkers of renal injury in living kidney transplant donors.
