Life After Kidney Transplantation: The Time for a New Narrative.
Article in Transplant international : official journal of the European Society for Organ Transplantation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The first successful kidney transplant in December 1954 between the Herrick brothers ushered in a new field of medicine. Over the almost seventy years, thousands of lives have been saved and patient survival has improved. There is one area of kidney transplant patient care that has been overlooked. Patient quality and ability to participate in life have not been adequately studied. This is due in part to the false narrative of life after kidney transplantation. The false narrative has developed due to the patient voice not being heard due to a variety of factors. The development and implementation of Patient Reported Outcome Measures into clinical practice and clinical trials is the first step ensuring the patient voice is heard systematically. By enabling the patient voice to be heard, I hope this result in a new narrative that is patient centered.
