COVID-19 in lung transplant recipients: an overview of the Swedish national experience.
Article in Transplant international : official journal of the European Society for Organ Transplantation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Although it is known that solid organ transplant recipients fare worse after COVID-19 infection, data on the impact of COVID-19 on clinical outcomes and allograft function in lung transplant (LTx) recipients are limited and based mainly on reports with short follow-up. In this nationwide study, all LTx recipients with COVID-19 diagnosed from 1 February 2020 to 30 April 2021 were included. The patients were followed until 1 August 2021 or death. We analysed demographics, clinical features, therapeutic management and outcomes, including lung function. Forty-seven patients were identified: median age was 59 (10-78) years, 53.1% were male, and median follow-up was 194 (23-509) days. COVID-19 was asymptomatic or mild at presentation in 48.9%. Nine patients (19.1%) were vaccinated pre-COVID infection. Two patients (4.3%) died within 28 days of testing positive, and the overall survival rate was 85.1%. The patients with asymptomatic or mild symptoms had a higher median % expected forced expiratory volume during the first second than the patients with worse symptoms (P = 0.004). LTx recipients develop the entire spectrum of COVID-19, and in addition to previously acknowledged risk factors, lower pre-COVID lung function was associated with more severe disease presentation.
