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

Kidney transplant is the gold standard for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, there is a significant discrepancy between donor availability and the number of potential recipients on the waiting list. Living donor kidney transplantation has been considered an alternative to increase the donor pool. Left donor nephrectomy is typically preferred due to the length of the renal vein. However, in some cases, right donor nephrectomy must be considered, which presents challenges due to the shorter renal vein and, in some cases, multiple renal arteries. For these cases, transplant surgeons must have alternative strategies to reconstruct the vasculature and ensure that graft implantation and anastomosis are as safe as possible. We present a case of a living donor right laparoscopic nephrectomy with two renal arteries, including vein elongation with an end-to-end anastomosis with a deceased donor renal vein and an end-to-side arterial anastomosis using a deceased donor iliac artery conduit.
