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 number of organ donors in Germany has been falling since 2010. In 2017, it reached its lowest level in 20 years with 797 organ donors. With 9.7 organ donors per million inhabitants, Germany lags far behind other European countries. The development of the donor numbers has long been an issue of concern for the Deutsche Stiftung Organtransplantation (DSO). Together with the donor hospitals, DSO has carried out extensive analyses on the possible causes. Though causes are multiple and complex, one important lever for improving the situation is seen in better detection and consistent reporting of possible organ donors. This is considered the best way to meet the patient's desire regarding organ donation. With reference to the dramatic development, DSO calls for a broad social debate and a joint initiative involving medical associations, contractors, patient associations and policymakers. Getting organ donation back on track in Germany for the benefit of patients on the waiting lists can only be achieved by a joint effort.
