Shadows of infection: Post-coronavirus disease condition and outcome patterns in patients receiving dialysis and kidney transplant recipients.
Review in World journal of nephrology, 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
Post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) condition describes a constellation of persistent or fluctuating symptoms and organ dysfunction following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on dialysis and kidney transplant recipients (KTR) inhabit a landscape of immune dysfunction, multimorbidity, and high healthcare interaction, which may amplify both the risk and consequences of post-COVID condition (PCC). In this article, we aimed to review current evidence on PCC and related post-acute sequelae in dialysis patients and KTR-focusing on symptom burden, risk factors, functional outcomes, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), kidney and graft outcomes, and recovery trajectories. It was found that dialysis patients and KTR experience a substantial burden of PCC superimposed on already complex symptoms and risk profiles. Long COVID in these groups encompasses not only fatigue, dyspnea and a "brain fog" phenomenon but also impaired HRQoL, reduced functional recovery, and potential acceleration of kidney and graft decline. Harmonized PCC definitions, kidney-specific outcome measures, and prospective multicentre studies in ESKD and kidney transplant populations are urgently required to inform prevention and management strategies embedded within the dialysis and kidney transplantation pathways.
