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

Renal-artery aneurysms (RAA), rare vascular lesions (≈0.1 % prevalence), may be detected during living-donor evaluations. We report a successful right kidney transplant from a 33-year-old woman with an 11 × 13 mm saccular RAA at the first bifurcation, detected by CT angiography. Following hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy, ex vivo repair involved aneurysm excision and reconstruction with a 6-mm heparin-bonded ePTFE graft. Cold ischemia was 110 min; implantation into the 69-year-old recipient was uneventful. Immediate postoperative diuresis occurred; discharge creatinine was 1.2 mg/dL. At 18 months, both remain asymptomatic with stable renal function and normotension.
