Mitigating Cross-Species Viral Infections in Xenotransplantation: Progress, Strategies, and Clinical Outlook.
Review in Cell transplantation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Xenotransplantation holds great promise as a solution to address the critical shortage of organs, but it raises concerns regarding the potential transmission of porcine viruses to recipients, leading to infections and even zoonotic diseases. Data used in this review were mainly from literature of Pubmed database. Keywords included xenotransplantation, infection, virus, and epidemiology. The original articles and critical reviews selected were relevant to this review's theme. We review the major viral infections of concern in xenotransplantation, their risk of transmission, diagnosis, treatment, and ways to prevent infection. Then, we pivot to a comprehensive overview of the current status of xenotransplantation. In addition, we offer our own insights and recommendations for propelling xenotransplantation forward, transitioning from preclinical experiments to the critical phase of clinical trials. Viral infections pose considerable safety concerns within xenotransplantation, particularly with the possibility of emerging or currently unidentified viruses. Clinical trials serve as a crucial platform to progress the safety standards of xenotransplantation. However, further studies and dedicated efforts are required to effectively translate findings into practical applications that can improve safety measures in this field.
