The Effect of Kidney Transplantation and Immunosuppressive Therapy on Adipose Tissue Content and Adipocytokine Plasma Concentration-Preliminary Study.
Article in Current issues in molecular biology, 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
Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for chronic kidney disease, significantly improving patient survival and quality of life. After the procedure, there is a gradual tendency to normalize most of the physiological and metabolic processes, but the need for immunosuppression may lead to new disorders related to the drugs' side effects and changes in proportions of body composition. The aim of the study was to analyze the concentrations of adipocytokines such as leptin, adiponectin, visfatin, and resistin, and to assess the body composition in patients with stabilized kidney graft function treated with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and glucocorticosteroids. A total of 47 participants were enrolled, including 25 kidney transplant recipients on uniform immunosuppressive therapy and 22 healthy controls. The concentrations of leptin, adiponectin, and IL-6 in kidney transplant recipients was significantly higher than in the control group (
