New-Onset Diabetes After Liver Transplantation: An SRTR Database Study of Incidence and Risk Factors.
Article in Annals of transplantation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is a common complication following liver transplantation, with serious patient and graft outcomes. The recent advances in transplant techniques and management have improved patient survival and consequently led to an increase in NODAT. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the current trends in the incidence, risk factors, and impact of NODAT on outcomes using a large national-level database. MATERIAL AND METHODS Adult liver transplant recipients who underwent the procedure between 2013 and 2022 were identified from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients database. NODAT was defined as diabetes newly diagnosed after transplantation. Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis were performed to assess the impact of NODAT on patient and graft survival. RESULTS Among 39 828 recipients who met the study criteria, 2973 (7.5%) developed NODAT. Independent risk factors for NODAT included recipient age >50 years, male sex, BMI >25 kg/m², cytomegalovirus infection, steroid and tacrolimus use at discharge, deceased donor, longer warm ischemia time, and donor diabetes history. NODAT was associated with decreased graft survival (HR=1.28, 95% CI=1.10-1.48, P<0.001) but not patient survival. Moreover, the recipients who developed NODAT had higher rates of graft failure due to vascular thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS NODAT affects 7.5% of liver transplant recipients and is associated with decreased graft survival. Identifying high-risk patients and optimizing modifiable risk factors may help improve outcomes.
