Reduced Surgical Complications After Deceased-Donor Kidney Transplantation Using Inverted Allograft and Ultrashort Ureteroureterostomy: A Single-Center Experience.

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
objectiveTo describe the outcomes of combined inverted renal grafts and ureteroureterostomy as the primary operative approach for kidney transplantation (KTx). PATIENTS AND
methodsThis case series included adult patients who consecutively underwent deceased-donor KTx for end-stage kidney disease at our center between January 2019 and June 2022. All patients received inverted KTx combined with ultrashort anisoperistaltic end-to-side ureteroureterostomy, without ureteral stenting. Descriptive analysis focused on the major perioperative outcomes within 90 days post-transplantation.
resultsCohort analysis of 211 patients revealed major postoperative complications requiring reoperation in 15 patients (7.11%). Reoperations for urological reasons included four patients (1.90%) with ureteral stricture and ureteral fistula in two patients each (0.95%). Ureteral strictures were managed with pyeloureterostomy, and ureteral fistulas were treated with end-to-end ureteral re-anastomosis, double-j stenting, JP drain placement, or pyeloureterostomy. Non-urological complications leading to reoperation included peri-graft collections and infections such as surgical hematoma (1.42%), deep surgical infection (1.90%), and wound dehiscence (1.90%). Three patients (1.42%) ultimately underwent transplantectomy because of graft loss after severe infection in two patients (0.95%) and acute rejection plus infection in one patient (0.47%). All the remaining patients were treated with surgical exploration, evacuation/irrigation, and wound closure. Vascular complications occurred in one patient with an arterial stricture (0.47%). Delayed graft function was found in 82.9% of the patients, with 95.26% achieving resolution within 4 weeks post-transplantation.
conclusionsInverted KTx combined with ultrashort end-to-side ureteroureterostomy is a feasible and safe technique with low rates of urological and vascular complications in our experience. To our knowledge, this is the largest case series using this combined surgical approach as the primary technique for deceased-donor KTxs.
