One-Year Mortality After Lung Transplantation: Experience of a Single French Center Between 2012 and 2021.
Article in Annals of transplantation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND Lung transplantation (LTx) is a life-extending therapy for specific patients with terminal lung diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the associations and causes of 1-year mortality after lung transplantation at Strasbourg University Hospital, France, between 2012 and 2021. MATERIAL AND METHODS We carried out a retrospective analysis on 425 patients who underwent LTx at Strasbourg University Hospital between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2021. Pre-transplant, perioperative, and postoperative data were collected from the electronic medical records. RESULTS Among all patients, 94.6% had a LTx, 4.0% a heart-lung transplantation, and 1.4% underwent pancreatic islet-lung transplantation. The median age at transplantation was 57 years, with 55.3% male patients. The main native lung disease leading to LTx was chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in 51.1% of patients; 16.2% needed super-urgent LTx. The 1-year mortality rate was 11.5%. Most deaths were either caused by multi-organ failure or septic shock. In our multivariate analysis, we identified 3 risk factors significantly related to 1-year mortality after LTx: body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 30 kg/m² vs BMI between 18.5 and 25 kg/m² (P=0.032), postoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support (P=0.034), and intensive care unit length of stay after transplantation (P<0.001). Two other factors were associated with a significantly lower 1-year mortality risk: longer hospital stay after LTx (P=0.024) and tacrolimus prescription (P=0.004). CONCLUSIONS Our study reported a 1-year mortality rate of 11.5% after LTx. Although LTx candidates are carefully selected, additional data are required to improve understanding of the risk factors for post-LTx mortality.
