Donor and Recipient Characteristics in Heart Transplantation Are Associated with Altered Myocardial Tissue Structure and Cardiac Function.

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
purposeTo use structure-function cardiac MRI in the evaluation of relationships between donor and heart transplantation (HTx) recipient characteristics and changes in cardiac tissue structure and function. HTx candidates and donor hearts are evaluated for donor-recipient matches to improve survival, but the impact of donor and recipient characteristics on changes in myocardial tissue and function in the transplanted heart is not fully understood. MATERIALS AND
methodsCardiac MRI at 1.5 T was performed from August 2014 to June 2017 in 58 HTx recipients (mean age, 51.1 years ± 12.6 [standard deviation], 26 female patients) and included T2 mapping (to evaluate edematous and/or inflammatory changes), precontrast and postcontrast T1 mapping (allowing the calculation of extracellular volume fraction [ECV] to estimate interstitial expansion), and tissue phase mapping (allowing the calculation of myocardial velocities and twist). Donor and recipient demographics (age, sex, height, weight, and body mass index [BMI]) and comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes, and smoking history) were evaluated for relationships with cardiac MRI measures.
resultsSex-influenced cardiac MRI measures of myocardial tissue and function are as follows: Female HTx recipients demonstrated increased precontrast T1 (
conclusionDonor and HTx recipient characteristics were significantly associated with cardiac MRI-derived measures of myocardial tissue structure and function.© RSNA, 2019.
