From grunts to words: experiments in laryngeal transplantation.
Article in Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2007. 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
introductionLaryngeal transplantation remains an increasingly viable option for patients with irreversible disease or damage to the larynx. Successful organ transplantation relies on minimising surgical, ischaemic and immunological insults. The inherent immunogenicity of an organ is dependent on the amount of immunologically active cells within it. The presence of immunologically active cells within non-transplanted NIH-minipigs was investigated and an in vivo laryngeal transplant model was developed. MATERIALS AND
methodsQuantitative, multiple-colour immunofluorescence using pig-specific monoclonal antibodies was used to assess the normal immunological architecture and the short-term immunological changes associated with 3 h of cold ischaemia and 8 h of reperfusion in an MHC-matched animal model. RESULTS AND
conclusionsThere is a complex immunological architecture within the non-transplanted, healthy pig larynx. In addition, an in vivo laryngeal transplant model was developed that allowed successful perfusion for 8 h post transplantation. There were significant changes in cell numbers within different anatomical subsites of the larynx. However, the biological significance remains debatable in view of the large range of cell numbers both within and between individual animals.
