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

Immunosuppressants and antifibrotics are currently used to treat patients with various interstitial lung diseases, which may undergo lung transplantation (LTx). The retrospective study aimed to evaluate the potential effects of therapeutic regimen on the perioperative course in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) undergoing LTx. All patients with IPF and PPF undergoing LTx between January 2014 and December 2021 were included. We retrospectively screened for previous use of immunosuppressants and antifibrotic therapy. We analyzed perioperative courses, short-term outcomes, and safety retrospectively. In total, 286 patients with diagnosis of IPF or PPF were analyzed. According to the treatment regimen before LTx, the study cohort was divided into four groups and compared. No differences between antifibrotic monotherapy, combined antifibrotic and immunosuppressive therapy with regard to postoperative complications were observed. Length of mechanical ventilation was shorter in patients with antifibrotics prior to LTx. Pretreatment with antifibrotic monotherapy and a combination of antifibrotic drugs with immunosuppressive therapy, lower body mass index (BMI) and lower blood loss, were independently associated with primary graft dysfunction grades 0-3 72 hours after LTx (
