A Comparison of Pregnancy Outcomes in Women Receiving Intensive Hemodialysis Versus Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Tailored hemodialysis prescriptions, including more frequent and intensive regimens, may improve pregnancy outcomes, yet most women are counselled to delay conception until after a successful kidney transplantation. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study between 2000 and 2023 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada to compare pregnancy outcomes of women receiving intensified hemodialysis versus kidney transplant recipients. Results: We included 48 pregnancies in 37 women receiving hemodialysis and 96 pregnancies in 60 women conceiving post-kidney transplantation. The 2 patient populations managed by the same multidisciplinary team had similar live birth rates (80% in hemodialysis and 76% in transplant patients; Conclusion: With appropriate counselling and management, pregnancy while on hemodialysis may be considered a viable alternative to conceiving post-renal transplant for women without imminent access to a donor.
