NOA method - three dimensions in the governance of kidney transplantation:
Article in MethodsX, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundDespite all efforts, the demand for organs increases. New and better strategies are still needed, critical in a crisis like pandemics. METHODOLOGY: A mathematical approach that integrates need, METHOD APPLICATION: We found some natural variability among the European Member States regarding
conclusionTransplantation is frequently the better treatment for end-stage kidney failure. NOA method may be, in the future, an indicator for evaluating the overall transplantation performance regarding the need for it and a tool for policy definition. With NOA method we seek to contribute for: •
