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

purpose of reviewOrgan shortage in transplantation medicine forces surgical research toward the development of more efficient approaches in organ preservation to enable the application of 'less than optimal' grafts. This review summarizes current techniques aiming to recondition cold-stored organ grafts prior to transplantation to reduce reperfusion-induced tissue injury and improve postimplantation graft function. RECENT

findingsEnd-ischemic reconditioning has classically been attempted by cold oxygenated perfusion. By contrast, evaluation of graft performance prior to transplantation might be facilitated by perfusion at higher temperatures, ideally at normothermia. A drastic temperature shift from cold preservation to warm perfusion, however, has been incriminated to trigger a so-called rewarming injury associated with mitochondrial alterations. A controlled gradual warming up during machine perfusion could enhance the restitution of cellular homeostasis and improve functional outcome upon warm reperfusion. SUMMARY: Machine perfusion after conventional cold storage is beneficial for ulterior function after transplantation. Cold grafts should be initially perfused at low temperatures allowing for restitution of cellular homeostasis under protective hypothermic limitation of metabolic turnover. Delayed slow rewarming of the organ might further mitigate rewarming injury upon reperfusion and also increases the predictive power of evaluative measures, taken during pretransplant perfusion.
