Provider beliefs and practices regarding the management of obesity in lung transplant recipients.
Article in JHLT open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Obesity at the time of lung transplant is associated with decreased survival. How providers manage obesity after lung transplantation is unknown. We performed an international survey of lung transplant providers to assess beliefs and practices regarding post-transplant obesity management. Eighty-one providers initiated the survey and 73 (90%) completed the full survey. Respondents were primarily North American-based pulmonary physicians. Nearly all providers believe treating obesity improves quality of life (99%) and survival (95%) after lung transplantation, but that only 41% of patients attempting weight loss are successful. While respondents nearly always recommend diet (96%), exercise (92%), and dietician consultation (89%), they less frequently recommend prescription weight loss medications (29%) or bariatric surgery (11%). Lung transplant providers are motivated to treat obesity in transplant recipients. However, there is a gap between general obesity treatment guidelines and lung transplant practice. Additional training, education, and trials in this population could address this gap.
