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
Improvement of machine perfusion (MP) technologies is required to enhance organ quality for donor after cardiac death (DCD) grafts. Installing a dialyzer or a filter into the perfusion circuit to maintain the perfusate condition has some advantages. However, the consequences of purification perfusate during subnormothermic machine perfusion (SNMP) remain unexplained. In this study, the effects of initial purification perfusate with simple method of replacing the first 0.5-L perfusate during SNMP were investigated to consider installation effect of the filter or the dialyzer. Porcine liver grafts, which have 60-min warm ischemia time, were procured to imitate the DCD graft condition. Purified SNMP (PSNMP) results were compared with simple cold storage and conventional SNMP. In PSNMP, initial perfusate of 0.5 L was removed to substitute for purification. After preservation process, the preserved grafts were reperfused with diluted autologous blood for 2 h under normothermic machine perfusion condition to evaluate the liver function using an isolated reperfusion model. The vascular pressures, enzyme release rates and the metabolic indexes during reperfusion were analyzed. The pressures in the hepatic artery after reperfusion 60 min were significantly lower in PSNMP group compared with cold storage (CS) and SNMP groups. In addition, lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase were significantly lower after PSNMP than after the CS or SNMP. Also, the metabolic indexes of hyaluronic acid and lactate were significantly decreased by purifying the perfusate in MP preservation than in CS or SNMP. The effectiveness of initial purification perfusate during SNMP was investigated.
