Impact of Induction Therapy on Preventing Early Acute Kidney Allograft Rejection: A Single-Center Experience Study.

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
Objective: Acute rejection infrequently occurs among immunologically low-risk recipients within the first few weeks after transplantation, and the role of induction treatment in the frequency of acute rejection and graft loss remains debatable. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 208 kidney transplant recipients with low immunological risk, defined by living donor transplantation, no prior transplantation history, absence of preformed anti-HLA antibodies, and a negative lymphocyte crossmatch prior to transplantation. Demographic data, immunologic characteristics, and graft functions were analyzed concerning early acute rejection history. Results: Fifteen patients (7.2%) experienced acute rejection within two weeks post-transplantation. No correlation was found between the number of HLA mismatches and induction treatment with early acute rejection. The cumulative incidences of acute rejection in the no-induction and basiliximab groups were comparable at 7.8% and 6.4%, respectively. Donor age was markedly higher, and the tacrolimus trough level on the seventh day post-transplantation was significantly lower in the early acute rejection group; however, the significance was lost after adjustment. The incidence of graft loss was higher in the early acute rejection cohort than in the no-rejection cohort (33.3% vs. 3.1%, p<0.001). Early acute rejection was the only independent risk factor for graft failure (HR 10.286, CI 1.944-54.409, p=0.006). Conclusion: Acute rejection within two weeks post-transplantation has been associated with suboptimal graft function in recipients with low immunological risk. Basiliximab does not provide additional advantages in preventing early acute rejection in patients with a low immunological risk on tacrolimus-based immunosuppression.
