The Impact of Implantation Time During Liver Transplantation on Outcome: A Eurotransplant Cohort Study.
Article in Transplantation direct, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
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
backgroundThe liver graft quickly rewarms during transplantation when the vascular anastomoses are being performed, potentially impacting on outcomes.
methodsWe investigated the relationship between implantation time and outcome in 5223 recipients of deceased-donor livers transplanted in Eurotransplant (2004-2013). Cox regression analyses were corrected for donor, preservation, and recipient variables. Transplant loss represents all-cause graft failure.
resultsMedian implantation time was 41 minutes (interquartile range, 34-51). Implantation time independently associated with transplant loss (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.04 for every 10-minute increase; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.07;
conclusionsImplantation time associates with inferior liver transplant outcome in a continuous way. These findings need confirmation and further study of confounding factors is needed so steps toward improving outcomes can be made.
