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

Background: The aim of the study was to verify how the kidney transplant (KTx) recipient profile changed between 2013 and 2022 and whether these changes influence the incidence, clinical manifestations, and microbiology of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Material and methods: We analyzed clinical data and urine cultures collected during the first posttransplant year in patients who underwent KTx between January 2013 and December 2022. Results: We studied data from 491 patients, who developed 448 episodes of UTIs, including asymptomatic bacteriuria (n=211, 47%), lower UTIs (n=80, 18%), acute graft pyelonephritis (n=97, 22%) and urosepsis (n=60, 13%). During two 5-year time periods (2013-2017 and 2018-2022), the number of recipients aged 70 years or over and 75 years or over increased (p=0.07). Recipients receiving a transplant more recently had higher numbers of mismatching HLA (p=0.001) and maximum CDC-PRA (p=0.001). As a result, in 2018-2022 KTx recipients were more likely to receive induction therapy vs. no induction and tacrolimus vs. cyclosporine-based maintenance immunosuppression (p<0.001). There was a parallel change in the etiology of UTIs, from Conclusion: Over the 10-year period, there was a noticeable change in both KTx recipient and uropathogen characteristics, which requires alteration of antimicrobial prophylaxis and treatment strategies.
