Donation After Circulatory Death: A New Frontier.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
purpose of reviewTo highlight the current global experience with DCD heart transplantation and explore the evolution of, and compare preservation strategies; examine early clinical outcomes, and discuss the growing use of DCD donors as a new frontier in heart transplantation. RECENT
findingsThe two strategies of DCD heart preservation include NMP using the OCS Heart and TA-NRP followed by either: NMP or CSS. Better understanding the limits of cold ischaemia following TA-NRP will aid in distant procurement. Asystolic warm ischaemia plays an important role in determining immediate post-operative graft function and potential need for mechanical support. Large volume DCD heart transplant units show no difference in survival between DCD and DBD donor heart transplants. In a previously non-utilised source of donor hearts, often viewed as an "unknown frontier" in heart transplantation, DCD hearts are a suitable alternative to brain-dead donor hearts and are likely to remain a permanent part of the heart transplantation landscape. Global uptake is currently increasing, and as understanding of preservation strategies and tolerable ischaemic times improve, utilisation of DCD hearts will continue to grow.
