Phase-resolved Functional Lung (PREFUL) MRI-derived Ventilation and Perfusion Parameters Predict Future Lung Transplant Loss.
Article in Radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), the physiologic correlate of chronic rejection, remains a major barrier to long-term survival following lung transplant. Biomarkers for early prediction of future transplant loss or death due to CLAD might open a window of opportunity for early diagnosis and treatment of CLAD. Purpose To evaluate the prognostic use of phase-resolved functional lung (PREFUL) MRI in predicting CLAD-related transplant loss or death. Materials and Methods In this prospective, longitudinal, single-center study, PREFUL MRI-derived ventilation and parenchymal lung perfusion parameters of bilateral lung transplant recipients without clinically suspected CLAD were assessed 6-12 months (baseline) and 2.5 years (follow-up) after transplant. MRI scans were acquired between August 2013 and December 2018. Regional flow volume loop (RFVL)-based ventilated volume (VV) and perfused volume were calculated using thresholds and spatially combined as ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) matching. Spirometry data were obtained on the same day. Exploratory models were calculated using receiver operating characteristic analysis, and subsequent survival analyses (Kaplan-Meier, hazard ratios [HRs]) of CLAD-related graft loss were performed to compare clinical and MRI parameters as clinical end points. Results At baseline MRI examination, 132 clinically stable patients of 141 patients (median age, 53 years [IQR, 43-59 years]; 78 men) were included (nine were excluded for deaths not associated with CLAD), 24 of which had CLAD-related graft loss (death or retransplant) within the observational period of 5.6 years. PREFUL MRI-derived RFVL VV was a predictor of poorer survival (cutoff, 92.3%; log-rank
