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

BACKGROUND Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a markedly increased cardiovascular risk, largely due to persistent endothelial dysfunction (ED). Kidney transplantation improves cardiovascular status, but whether transplant type-living donor (LDT) or cadaver donor transplantation (CDT)-differentially affects coronary endothelial function remains unclear. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this prospective observational study, 75 kidney transplant recipients (LDT: n=50; CDT: n=25) and 25 healthy controls (HC) underwent CFVR measurement at baseline (CFVR-1) and 6 months post-transplantation (CFVR-2). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LV-EF), diameters, and NT-proBNP were also assessed. Group comparisons and pre-/post-transplant changes were analyzed. RESULTS Baseline CFVR was higher in HC than in transplant groups (p0.05), but CFVR-1 0.05). A ≥10% EF increase occurred in 36% of patients in each group. CONCLUSIONS Kidney transplantation improves coronary endothelial function and cardiac performance regardless of donor type, though severe baseline CFVR impairment is more common in cadaveric recipients.
