Global Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Solid Organ Transplant.
Article in Transplantation proceedings. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundCOVID-19 has drastically affected transplant services, but there is limited understanding of the discrepancy of COVID-19 effects on various regions of the world.
methodsWe have explored the Global Observatory for Organ Donation and Transplantation data for assessing the transplant number changes between the calendar year 2019 (n = 157,301) and 2020 (129,681).
resultsThere was a disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on different areas of the world. Globally, there was a decline of 17.5%, in which deceased donation, kidney (20.9%), pancreas (16.2%), lung (12.7%), liver (11.3%), and heart (8%) transplant declined disproportionally in different regions of the world. The pandemic affected almost all geographic regions and nations, but China and the United States were mostly able to recover from the initial halt of the transplant practices by the pandemic so that there was a cumulative increase in transplant numbers.
conclusionsOur data show that developing nations lagged behind, whereas developed nations have been able to recover their transplantation programs during the pandemic. Further policy making and preparedness is required to safeguard the most vulnerable areas of the world to minimize the impact of any future pandemic on transplantation practices.
