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

Objective: To assess the outcomes of a pair of kidneys from a single donor used for simultaneous heart-kidney transplantation (SHKT) or kidney after heart transplantation (KAH). Background: An Increase in kidney dysfunction among heart transplant candidates has led to an increased need for SHKT and KAH. The risk of early kidney graft loss and mortality is higher in SHKT compared with kidney-alone recipients. Methods: Among adult kidney transplant recipients from Oct 2014 to Oct 2022, outcomes were compared between paired kidney-alone Results: A total of 1220 pairs of kidney-alone and SHKT recipients and 441 pairs of kidney-alone and KAH recipients were identified. Among the paired donor kidneys, graft survival was significantly lower in SHKT recipients compared with kidney-alone recipients at 1-year post-transplant (96.1% Conclusions: Optimal recipient selection for kidney after heart transplant under the new safety-net policy may help mitigate the significant risk of kidney graft failure among SHKT recipients.
