The Korean Organ Transplant Registry (KOTRY): Second Official Adult Heart Transplant Report.
Article in Korean circulation journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThis second adult heart transplantation (HTx) report is based on Korean Organ Transplant Registry data submitted on 400 HTxs in recipients of all ages.
methodsFrom March 2014 to December 2017, a total of 400 HTxs were performed at 4 major centers in Korea. We analyzed demographics and characteristics according to transplant years. Patterns of immunosuppression, allograft rejection, and survival after HTx were analyzed. Donor and recipient age were highlighted.
resultsSome distinct differences in HTx statistics were noted. Mean donor age increased significantly in the most recent years compared to 2014-2015, while mean recipient age did not change. The proportion of patients on pre-transplant extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) increased over time. One-year and intermediate-term survival was significantly worse in patients on pre-transplant ECMO compared to those without mechanical support. Over the years, tacrolimus has increased to become the most frequently used calcineurin inhibitor over cyclosporine, while the number of patients using steroids both at discharge and 1-year follow-up has declined. Age did not affect 1-year survival, but significantly affected intermediate-term survival.
conclusionsFrom 2014 to 2017, centers were willing to accept older donors to address increasing organ shortages and more patients received transplant under ECMO care. Increasing age was a strong independent factor for intermediate-term survival, however, post-transplant comorbidities did not differ among age groups. Further studies with longer follow-up duration are needed to better understand age-related post-transplant prognosis.
