Extended criteria brain-dead organ donors: Prevalence and impact on the utilisation of livers for transplantation in Brazil.
Article in World journal of hepatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundDespite its association with higher postoperative morbidity and mortality, the use of extended criteria donor (ECD) livers for transplantation has increased globally due to the high demand for the procedure.
aimTo investigate the prevalence of ECD in donation after brain death (DBD) and its impact on organ acceptance for transplantation.
methodsRetrospective analysis of DBD organ offers for liver transplantation between 2017 and 2020 in a high-volume transplant centre. The incidence of the Eurotransplant risk factors to define an ECD (ET-ECD) among DBD donors and the likelihood of organ acceptance over the years were analysed. The relationship between organ refusal for transplantation, the occurrence, and the number of ET-ECD was assessed by simple and multiple logistic regression adjustment.
resultsA total of 1619 organ donors were evaluated. Of these, 78.31% (
conclusionA high prevalence of ECD DBD was observed. Despite the increase in their utilisation, the presence and the number of extended donor criteria were associated with an increased likelihood of their refusal for transplantation.
