Association Between Perioperative Daprodustat Use and Early Posttransplant Graft Function in Living Donor Kidney Transplantation: A Propensity Score-Matched Retrospective Study.
Article in Current therapeutic research, clinical and experimental, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitors, such as daprodustat, have demonstrated nephroprotective effects in preclinical models. However, their potential benefits in living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of daprodustat on early posttransplant graft functions in LDKT. Methods: This single-center study evaluated LDKT recipients transplanted between August 2019 and November 2023. Patients were divided into the daprodustat group, who received the drug from preoperative Day 1 to postoperative Day 7, and the control group, who did not receive HIF-PH inhibitors during this period. Propensity score matching yielded 32 patients per group. Results: The daprodustat group exhibited better graft function, reflected by higher estimated glomerular filtration rates in the early posttransplant period (mean ± standard deviation: Week 1, 53.3 ± 16.1 vs control 41.9 ± 17.9 mL/min/1.73 m²; Conclusions: These findings raise the possibility that perioperative daprodustat use may be associated with improved early graft function in LDKT, warranting further investigation.
