Contemporary Issues in Lung Transplant Allocation Practices.
Article in Current transplantation reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 reviewTo discuss the current state of donor lung allocation in the United States, and future opportunities to increase the efficiency of donor lung allocation. RECENT
findingsThe current donor lung allocation system prioritizes clinical acuity by use of the Lung Allocation Score (LAS) which has reduced waitlist mortality since its implementation in 2005. Access to donor lungs can be further improved through policy changes using broader geographic sharing, and developing new technology such as ex vivo lung perfusion to recover marginal donor lungs. SUMMARY: The number of lung transplants in the U.S. continues to increase annually. However, the demand for donor lungs continues to be outpaced by an ever growing waitlist. Efficient allocation can be achieved through improved allocation policies and new technology.
