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

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has substantially impacted solid organ transplantation, including temporary inactivation of waitlist candidates with COVID-19 infection. We report two cases of liver transplantation (LT) in individuals with asymptomatic COVID-19 infection. The first patient is a 68-year-old female with decompensated cirrhosis complicated by worsening frailty and sarcopenia. The second patient is a 22-year-old female with acute liver failure likely secondary to drug/toxin exposure. Both patients were treated with COVID-19-directed therapies and neither patient developed symptomatic disease. These cases demonstrate that LT can be safely performed in select patients with asymptomatic COVID-19 infection at the time of transplant.
