Racial Disparities in Hospitalization Rates During Long-Term Follow-Up After Deceased-Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2025. 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
objectiveTo compare hospitalization rates between African American (AA) and European American (EA) deceased-donor (DD) kidney transplant (KT) recipients during over a10-year period.
methodData from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients and social determinants of health (SDoH), measured by the Social Deprivation Index, were used. Hospitalization rates were estimated for kidney recipients from AA and EA DDs who had one kidney transplanted into an AA and one into an EA, leading to four donor/recipient pairs (DRPs): AA/AA, AA/EA, EA/AA, and EA/EA. Poisson-Gamma models were fitted to assess post-transplant hospitalizations.
resultUnadjusted hospitalization rates (95% confidence interval) were higher among all DRP involving AA, 131.1 (122.5, 140.3), 134.8 (126.3, 143.8), and 102.4 (98.9, 106.0) for AA/AA, AA/EA, and EA/AA, respectively, compared to 97.1 (93.7, 100.6) per 1000 post-transplant person-years for EA/EA pairs. Multivariable analysis showed u-shaped relationships across SDoH levels within each DRP, but findings varied depending on recipients' race, i.e., AA recipients in areas with the worst SDoH had higher hospitalization rates. However, EA recipients in areas with the best SDoH had higher hospitalization rates than their counterparts.
conclusionsRelationship between healthcare utilization and SDoH depends on DRP, with higher hospitalization rates among AA recipients living in areas with the worst SDoH and among EA recipients in areas with the best SDoH profiles. SDoH plays an important role in driving disparities in hospitalizations after kidney transplantation.
