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

Background: Pancreas transplant volumes are limited because of poor utilization of "extended criteria grafts." Prolonged cold ischemia is a risk factor associated with poor allograft survival. We aimed to establish the feasibility of transplantation using grafts subjected to prolonged cold ischemia and determine whether these grafts could be optimized using normothermic ex vivo perfusion (NEVP) in a porcine model. Methods: The study population consisted of 35 to 40 kg male Yorkshire pigs in an allotransplantation model with a 3-d survival plan for recipients. Control grafts were subjected to cold storage (CS) in a University of Wisconsin solution for 21 to 24 h (n = 6), whereas the test group received an additional 3 h NEVP after CS of 21 h (n = 5). Results: The 3-d survival was 60% in the NEVP arm versus 0% in the control arm ( Conclusions: Optimization of pancreas grafts exposed to extended CS with NEVP seems promising at rescuing and reanimating these grafts for transplantation, resulting in significantly improved survival in a porcine pancreas transplant model.
