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

Lung transplantation is the procedure of choice in many patients with end-stage lung disease and is being performed more frequently around the world. However, there continues to be shortage of donor organs with the ever-expanding number of recipients on the waiting list, leading to liberalization of the lung donor selection criteria with increasing acceptance of marginal donors while striving for excellent results. This has placed an increasing emphasis on the technique of donor lung procurement and preservation from marginal donors. Good judgment and procurement techniques are necessary to obtain high-quality donor lungs for transplantation and optimize long-term results. This is a review of our current technique used for the procurement of the lungs from brain-dead donors.
