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

Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is associated with many causes including post-infectious damage, immunodeficiency, connective tissue disease and ciliary dysfunction and can also overlap with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. Renal transplantation (RT) is the most common solid-organ transplantation worldwide. Since 2004, bronchiectasis associated with RT has been described in case reports and series involving children and adult patients. The pathogenesis remains unclear and may combine underlying renal diseases, immunodeficiency, direct toxicity of immunosuppressive drugs and lower tract infections. This narrative review, supported by the extensive literature in PubMed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science, provides a state-of-the-art of current knowledge regarding the epidemiology, pathophysiology and clinical impact of bronchiectasis in renal transplant patients. Finally, we provide management proposals for RT-associated bronchiectasis in clinical practice.
