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

objectiveTo define risk factors, obstetric morbidity, and allograft outcomes associated with an unintended pregnancy after kidney transplant.

methodsThis is a retrospective cohort study of pregnancies in women after kidney transplantation enrolled in the Transplant Pregnancy Registry International with births between 1967 and 2019, with cohorts categorized as intended pregnancies and unintended pregnancies. The primary outcome was acute kidney rejection during pregnancy or by 6 weeks postpartum. Secondary outcomes included allograft loss, severe maternal morbidity, and neonatal composite morbidity. Multivariable logistic regression, Kaplan-Meier curves, and Cox proportional hazards regression models were performed, with adjustment for covariates pertinent to allograft function.

resultsAmong 1,723 pregnancies of kidney transplant recipients, 1,081 (62.7%) were intended and 642 (37.3%) were unintended pregnancies. Risk factors for unintended pregnancy included younger age, Black race, nulliparity, chronic hypertension, and transplant from a deceased donor. Exposure to mycophenolate products (16.0% vs 5.7%) and termination (4.7% vs 0.4%) were more common in unintended pregnancies (

conclusionUnintended pregnancy was not associated with acute kidney allograft rejection in the peripartum period, but it was associated with mycophenolate exposure and allograft loss at 2 years from pregnancy. The same social vulnerabilities that underlie difficulty in accessing reproductive care may be similarly important for transplant health. We recommend prepregnancy counseling and longitudinal follow-up of transplant recipients to reduce rates of unintended pregnancy and to optimize transplantation success over time.
