Lung transplantation for acute respiratory distress syndrome: A multicenter experience.
Article in American journal of transplantation : official journal of the American Society of Transplantation and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive lung disease with a high mortality rate. Although lung transplantation (LTx) is a well-established treatment for a variety of chronic pulmonary diseases, LTx for acute lung failure (due to ARDS) remains controversial. We reviewed posttransplant outcome of ARDS patients from three high-volume European transplant centers. Demographics and clinical data were collected and analyzed. Viral infection was the main reason for ARDS (n = 7/13, 53.8%). All patients were admitted to ICU and required mechanical ventilation, 11/13 were supported with ECMO at the time of listing. They were granted a median LAS of 76 (IQR 50-85) and waited for a median of 3 days (IQR 1.5-14). Postoperatively, median length of mechanical ventilation was 33 days (IQR 17-52.5), median length of ICU and hospital stay were 39 days (IQR 19.5-58.5) and 54 days (IQR 43.5-127). Prolongation of peripheral postoperative ECMO was required in 7/13 (53.8%) patients with a median duration of 2 days (IQR 2-7). 30-day mortality was 7.7%, 1 and 5-year survival rates were calculated as 71.6% and 54.2%, respectively. Given the lack of alternative treatment options, the herein presented results support the concept of offering live-saving LTx to carefully selected ARDS patients.
