Outcomes of Combined Liver-Kidney Transplantation in Polycystic Liver and Kidney Disease.
Article in Annals of transplantation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
BACKGROUND Adult polycystic liver disease (PLD) is a rare disorder frequently associated with polycystic kidney disease (PKD). This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes of organ transplantation in patients with PLD. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 9 PLD patients who underwent organ transplantation at our center from May 2015 to Jan 2024. Intraoperative conditions and postoperative complications were closely monitored and documented. The survival rates of recipients and grafts, the use of immunosuppressants in recipients, and graft function were all monitored. RESULTS All 9 patients were female, with a mean age of 51.6±7.9 years. Among them, 8 had PLD combined with polycystic kidney disease (PKD), and 1 had PLD with left renal cysts. Among the 9 patients, 7 underwent combined liver and kidney transplantation (including 2 sequential liver and kidney transplantation), while 2 underwent liver transplantation alone. Two patients developed liver graft rejection postoperatively, and 1 patient developed kidney stones and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD). One patient who underwent sequential liver-kidney transplantation died 135 days after kidney transplantation due to severe infection. The median follow-up time for the surviving patients was 45.0 months (range 16.0 to 108.4 months). The survival rate was 88.9%. Among the 6 surviving patients who underwent combined liver and kidney transplantation, the preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 19.8±16.4 mL/min, while the postoperative follow-up eGFR was 64.2±12.3 mL/min. CONCLUSIONS Organ transplantation provides a reliable solution for patients with PLD and end-stage renal failure.
