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

The expansion of the donor lung pool has involved an evidence-driven redefinition of acceptable donors. Proceeding with transplantation with an acceptable rather than ideal donor depends on specific patient-related and organ-related risk factors as well as the severity of recipient illness. Although the physiologic optimization of brain-dead donors has not changed significantly in recent years, the use of donor management protocols has improved procurement rates. Ex vivo lung perfusion is an increasingly viable strategy to recondition lungs that would otherwise fall below the acceptable threshold for transplant. Ex vivo perfusion trials for preservation of standard donor lungs are ongoing.
