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

purposeInter-species transplantation, xenotransplantation, is becoming a realistic strategy to solve the organ shortage crisis. Here we focus on seminal publications that have driven research in xenotransplantation, as well as recently published literature and future endeavors. RECENT

findingsAdvances in gene editing technology have allowed for the efficient production of multi-transgenic porcine donors leading improved xenograft survival in baboons, up to 2-years following heterotopic heart xenotransplantation and from weeks to several months following life-supporting kidney xenotransplanation. As technology evolves, additional challenges have arisen, including the development of proteinuria, early graft loss associated with porcine CMV, disparities in organ growth between donors and recipients as well as high-dose continuous immunosuppression requirements. To address these issues, our laboratory developed a tolerance-inducing protocol which has allowed for >6 months survival of a life-supporting kidney with further approaches currently underway to address the challenges mentioned above. SUMMARY: Our recent findings, reviewed in this article, led us to develop methods to overcome obstacles, which, in conjunction with the work of others, are promising for future clinical applications of xenotransplantation.
