Impact of Early Post-Transplantation Diabetes Mellitus and Changes in Diabetic Status on Graft Failure and Mortality in Kidney Transplant Recipients.

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
Post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common complication following kidney transplantation (KT), but the prognostic significance of early PTDM and changes in diabetic status remains uncertain. Using the Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) database, we analyzed 8,486 KT recipients (KTRs) who underwent national health screening from 2009 to 2017. Early PTDM was defined as new-onset diabetes between 3 months and 1 year after KT. Cox regression was used to estimate the risk of graft failure and all-cause mortality. Early PTDM and preexisting DM were present in 12.2% and 28.5% of KTRs, respectively. Early PTDM was significantly associated with mortality (aHR 1.309, 95% CI 1.015-1.689) but not with graft failure. Changes in diabetic status were not significantly associated with graft failure. However, transitioning from non-DM to PTDM (aHR 1.646, 95% CI 1.080-2.510) and having persistent early PTDM (aHR 1.755, 95% CI 1.325-2.377) were associated with increased mortality, whereas regression from early PTDM to non-DM was not. Preexisting DM was associated with increased mortality, regardless of subsequent changes; the risk was relatively lower in those who regressed to non-DM. Changes in diabetic status were found to have a greater impact on outcomes than early PTDM, highlighting the importance of continuous glycemic monitoring and individualized care in KTRs.
