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

Diarrhea is a common complication after pediatric kidney transplantation. While mycophenolate mofetil is an important and common cause of post-transplant diarrhea, diarrhea can result from infectious and other non-infectious causes. Many complications can result from severe diarrhea including acute kidney injury from dehydration. Other unique complications in transplant recipients include tacrolimus toxicity and acute rejection (from changes in immunosuppressive pharmacokinetics or dosing in response to the diarrhea). Therefore, a thorough evaluation is recommended for all pediatric patients with severe diarrhea to ensure that appropriate interventions are instituted, and risks of complications minimized. Our review describes the scope of the morbidity of diarrheal illness after transplantation, common causes, and newer insights in the management of diarrhea, both supportive and targeted to the underlying cause.
