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

Cytomegalovirus (CMV), a common pathogen, causes infectious complications and affects long-term survival after transplantation. Studies examining living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) are limited. This study analyzed the risk factors for CMV infection and its impact on the survival of LDLT patients. A nested case-control design retrospectively analyzed data from 952 patients who underwent LDLT from 2005-2021. The incidence of CMV infection for the study cohort was 15.2% at 3 months for LDLT patients managed preemptively. Patients with CMV infections were matched with those without the infection at corresponding time points (index postoperative day) in a 1:2 ratio. Graft survival was significantly lower in the CMV infection group than in the control group. CMV infection was an independent risk factor for graft survival in the matched cohort (HR 1.93,
