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

backgroundAllograft failure after kidney transplantation remains common despite improving long-term outcomes and persistent organ scarcity. We aimed to develop and internally validate a perioperative risk model for kidney allograft failure within 2 years of transplantation.

methodsWe conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study using the Medical Informatics Operating Room Vitals and Events Repository. Adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing kidney transplantation between January 2018 and July 2023 with at least 2 years of follow-up were included. The primary outcome was allograft failure within 2 years, defined as return to dialysis, pre-emptive re-transplantation, or death. Candidate predictors included demographic characteristics, comorbidities, preoperative laboratory values, and intraoperative variables. After univariate screening and variable selection with LASSO-penalized regression, we estimated relative risks using modified Poisson regression and assessed internal validity with 200 bootstrap resamples.

resultsAmong 319 recipients, 53 (16.6%) experienced early allograft failure. In the final multivariable model, obesity (relative risk [RR] 4.76; bootstrap 95% CI 2.88-9.31) and thrombocytopenia (RR 1.96; bootstrap 95% CI 1.18-3.38) were independently associated with increased risk. Anemia (RR 0.22; bootstrap 95% CI 0.13-0.37), preoperative clonidine use (RR 0.33; bootstrap 95% CI 0.00-0.85), and female sex (RR 0.55; bootstrap 95% CI 0.26-0.83) were associated with reduced risk. Model performance was modest (pseudo-R

conclusionsA five-variable perioperative model based on obesity, thrombocytopenia, anemia, preoperative clonidine use, and female sex identified kidney transplant recipients at differing risk of allograft failure within 2 years. These associations highlight potentially modifiable targets that warrant further study and external validation before clinical use.
