Short and long-term effects of kidney donation on mineral and bone metabolism.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2024. 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
backgroundLiving kidney donors (LKD) experience an abrupt decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) resulting in abnormalities of mineral and bone metabolism (MBD), and this may have implications for skeletal health. We prospectively studied acute and long term MBD adaptation of LKD from two kidney transplant centers (São Paulo, Brazil and Miami, USA).
methodsRenal function and MBD parameters longitudinally after kidney donation (baseline - D0, day 1, 14, 180 and 360 post-operatively) were measured in 74 patients (40 y, 73% female, 54% Brazilian). A subset of 20 donors from Brazil were reassessed after 10 years of nephrectomy.
resultsAt baseline, Brazilian donors presented lower intact FGF23 (20.8 vs. 80.1 pg/mL, P < 0.01) and higher PTH (47.4 vs. 40.1, P = 0.04) than their US counterparts. GFR decreased to 63% of its baseline levels just after donation but improved 10% during the first year. PTH levels increased on D1, returning to baseline levels on D14, while FGF23 remained higher than baseline over the first year. LKD had a significant reduction of serum phosphate on D1, which returned to baseline levels on D180. A higher fractional excretion of phosphate (FEP) was noted since D14. After 10 years of donation, 20 LKD presented a sustained reduction in GFR (74.8 ± 14mL/min). There was a return to baseline in serum FGF23 [21.8 (18-30) pg/mL] and FEP, accompanied by an increase in serum calcium. PTH remained elevated (57.9 ± 18 pg/mL), whereas serum calcitriol and Klotho were lower than before the donation.
conclusionsThe abrupt decline in kidney mass is associated with an increase in PTH and FGF23 that is not explained by phosphate retention. In a long-term evaluation, LKD showed a sustained drop in GFR, with lower serum calcitriol and Klotho, and higher PTH. The effects of these changes should be investigated in further studies.
