Early Renal Outcomes Following Heart Transplantation Using Organs Procured After Circulatory Death.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 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
backgroundTransplantation using hearts obtained through donation after circulatory death (DCD) is increasing, but data on recipient renal outcomes are limited. METHODS AND
resultsPatients at a single institution who underwent heart transplantation using organs procured through DCD or donation after brain death (DBD) from April 2016 to August 2022 were included in this retrospective cohort study. Hemodynamic measures were collected via right heart catheterization performed 1 week after transplantation. Posttransplantation renal outcomes included estimated glomerular filtration rate at 1 week, 4 weeks, and 16 weeks, and the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and renal replacement therapy within 1 week. The analysis included 225 patients (55 recipients of DCD). Baseline characteristics were comparable between recipients of DCD and DBD. Renal outcomes within 1 week posttransplantation in recipients of DCD were similar to recipients of DBD, including percent change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (-37.9% [-58.6 to -6.2] versus -31.9% [-52.4 to -9.9];
conclusionsRecipients of DCD demonstrated similar renal outcomes compared with recipients of DBD, supporting the ongoing use of DCD transplantation. Early AKI was associated with persistent renal dysfunction for recipients of both DCD and DBD.
