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

backgroundFailure of venous drainage during reperfusion is an uncommon but serious complication of kidney transplantation that can rapidly compromise graft viability. CASE SUMMARY: We report a 51-year-old woman with end-stage kidney disease undergoing living-donor kidney transplantation after long-term hemodialysis and prior left femoral dialysis catheterization. Intraoperatively, the left external iliac vein was unexpectedly found to be markedly atrophic, measuring only 3 mm, whereas the graft renal vein measured 12 mm. After initial anastomosis to the external iliac vein, reperfusion caused immediate graft congestion, indicating inadequate venous outflow. A short great saphenous vein interposition graft was therefore used to create an additional drainage pathway from the renal vein to the ipsilateral ovarian vein, which measured 3.7 mm. The graft decompressed immediately, and urine output began within 1 minute. Renal function remained stable, with a serum creatinine level of 65.4 μmol/L at 7 months, and 8-month imaging confirmed bypass patency and adaptive venous enlargement.

conclusionA small ovarian vein with an autologous conduit can provide a salvage option for unexpected iliac venous pathology in kidney transplantation.
