[COVID-19 after heart transplantation: experiences from a German transplantation center].
Article in Zeitschrift fur Herz-, Thorax- und Gefasschirurgie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV‑2 ( Objective: We report here our experience with COVID-19 ( Material and methods: All adult patients who had received a heart transplant at our center and had confirmed COVID-19 infection ( Results: The mean age was 61.5 (49-63) years, and the majority were male (83%). Comorbidities such as diabetes (42%), arterial hypertension (43%), and chronic renal failure (67%) were found. Passive immunization (convalescent plasma/monoclonal antibodies) was performed in 50%. Oxygen administration was required in 33% of patients; only one patient required noninvasive ventilation (8%), and no patient required invasive ventilation or mechanical cardiovascular support (ECMO). No new cardiovascular or thromboembolic events were found. Conclusion: We could longitudinally not detect severe courses or increased mortality of COVID-19 in heart transplant patients. Prospective studies are needed to make better prognostic estimates of COVID-19 in (heart) transplant patients in the future.
