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

Screening of recipients and donors of cardiac allografts for infectious pathogens, and the use of appropriate immunization and antimicrobial prophylaxis strategies, remain important for the control of infection following heart transplantation. However, the risk of infectious complications in a particular patient must often be weighed against the risk of delaying or denying allograft transplantation. In addition, the ongoing degree of immunosuppression and its contribution to the risk for infectious complications should also be considered to guide the length of prophylactic antimicrobial therapy and provide optimal patient care.
