Attitudes to Clinical Pig Kidney Xenotransplantation among Medical Providers and Patients.
Article in Kidney360, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Background: In addition to governmental regulation and scientific advancements, the World Health Organization requires extensive review of local opinions before initiating clinical trials of xenotransplantation (XTx). The purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes of health care providers and patients regarding XTx. Methods: An anonymous Likert-scale survey regarding attitudes toward XTx was distributed to pre- and post-kidney transplant patients, nephrologists, transplant surgeons, and nurses ("providers"). Patient and provider responses were described and compared. Regression analysis using patients' responses was performed to identify factors associated with XTx acceptance. Results: Eighty percent (32/40) of providers and 69% (113/163) of patients were agreeable to clinical XTx if the risks and results were likely to be similar to kidney allotransplantation ( Conclusions: (
