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

objectivesCold ischemia during kidney transplantation induces ischemia-reperfusion injury with endothelial dysfunction, capillary leak, and impaired perfusion. Its duration critically determines graft outcome. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) enables noninvasive assessment of renal microcirculation and may indicate ischemic injury. We evaluated the impact of ischemia duration on DCE-MRI-derived perfusion parameters in renal transplants in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsProcedures were approved by the local institutional animal care and use committee. A total of 15 C57BL/6 mice underwent kidney transplantation and were assigned to a short or prolonged cold ischemia group. DCE-MRI was performed to assess renal perfusion. Imaging was conducted at a mean of 268 ± 30 days (mean ± standard deviation) after transplantation. Perfusion parameters were calculated using the Patlak model, which provides the plasma volume fraction (v

conclusionCold ischemia with 16-h duration was associated with significantly higher K RELEVANCE STATEMENT: Quantitative DCE-MRI detects microvascular injury after 16-h cold ischemia in kidney transplants in mice, supporting its potential as a noninvasive tool to assess graft integrity and guide interventions aimed at improving long-term transplant outcomes. KEY POINTS: The duration of ischemia critically affects endothelial integrity and perfusion characteristics in a mouse kidney transplant model. Prolonged 16-h ischemia leads to increased vascular permeability, indicating more severe endothelial and microcirculatory injury in transplanted kidneys. DCE-MRI enables sensitive detection of subtle ischemia-related microvascular alterations, supporting its value for noninvasive graft assessment.
