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: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have shown cardiorenal benefits in the general population; however, evidence regarding their efficacy and safety in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) remains sparse. This meta-analysis seeks to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety profile of SGLT-2 inhibitors specifically in the diabetes KTR population. Methods: We conducted a systemic review and meta-analysis following a registered protocol in the PROSPERO (CRD42023404886). A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed, Cochrane, and Scopus databases up to October 23 Results: A total of seven studies comprising 2,713 patients were included in this analysis. SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with a significant reduction in HbA1c levels (WMD -0.37%; 95% CI -0.73 to -0.01; p = 0.04) and BMI (WMD -0.89 kg/m Conclusions: SGLT-2 inhibitors effectively reduced mortality, cardiovascular disease, HbA1c levels and BMI in KTRs without increasing the risk of infections or allograft rejection. However, they did not demonstrate a significant benefit in kidney-related outcomes.
