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

Background: The most common causes of early graft loss in pancreas transplantation are insufficient blood supply and leakage of the intestinal anastomosis. Therefore, it is critical to monitor graft perfusion and oxygenation during the early post-transplant period. The goal of our pilot study was to evaluate the utility of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) in monitoring the microcirculation of the graft and adequate perfusion of the intestinal anastomosis during pancreatic allotransplantation. Methods: We imaged pancreatic grafts and intestinal anastomosis in real-time in three consecutive, simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantations using the TIVITA Results: All pancreas grafts showed a high and homogeneous StO Conclusions: Our study shows that contact-free HSI has potential utility as a novel tool for real-time monitoring of human pancreatic grafts after reperfusion, which could improve the outcome of pancreas transplantation. Further investigations are required to determine the predictive value of intraoperative HSI imaging.
