Estimating the Contribution of Renal Function to Endothelial Dysfunction and Subclinical Inflammation with a Two-Cohort Study: Living Kidney Donors and Their Transplant Recipients.
Observational study in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02515643 (Estimating the Contribution of Renal Function to Endothelial Dysfunction by a Two-cohort Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
Living kidney transplantation offers the best results for end-stage renal disease patients, but concerns about cardiovascular risk after nephrectomy for kidney donors have been raised. We aimed to estimate the contribution of renal function to endothelial dysfunction (ED) and subclinical inflammation in a non-interventional, prospective, multicenter, longitudinal study with two cohorts: living kidney donors and their transplant recipients (registered clinical trial NCT02515643). The measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) by iohexol clearance, estimated GFR according to the CKD-EPI and MDRD-4 formulas, and levels of endothelial dysfunction (sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, E-selectin, von Willebrand Factor, pentraxin, and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio) and subclinical inflammation biomarkers (sIL-6, sTNF-R1, sTNF-R2, sTWEAK, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) were determined at baseline and 1-year follow-up. Fifty pairs of donors and recipients were recruited between 2015 and 2018. Among the endothelial dysfunction biomarkers, sVCAM-1 increased in donors and decreased in recipients (
