[A rapid review: quality of life in adult allogeneic kidney transplantation in the last five years : What can we learn?]
Review in Urologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
backgroundRecent studies have also shown that clinical monitoring of quality of life (HRQoL) helps to recognize kidney transplant failure at an early stage.
objectivesGiven the potential of improving HRQoL for the long-term outcomes of kidney transplantation, we conducted a rapid review of the last 5 years of quality of life evaluation after adult allogeneic kidney transplantation. MATERIALS AND
methodsA rapid evidence analysis was carried out using a literature search in MEDLINE in the period 2019-2024.
resultsThe primary literature search yielded 554 hits, and ultimately only 12 cohort studies could be included, of which 2 were retrospective and 10 prospective cohort studies. Kidney transplant patients have better HRQoL than patients with end-stage renal disease. HRQoL is influenced by physical, psychological, and social factors. Further improvement of HRQoL or the primary influencing factors has the potential to further enhance the outcomes of kidney transplantation. However, studies to identify suitable interventions are lacking. Interesting factors to be influenced could be, for example, respiratory symptoms and support for professional reintegration.
conclusionFuture studies should focus on the identification of adequate interventions to further improve HRQoL in kidney transplant recipients.
