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

The number of candidates on the waiting list for heart transplantation (HT) continues to far outweigh the number of available organs, and the donor heart nonuse rate in the United States remains significantly higher than that of other regions such as Europe. Although predicting outcomes in HT remains challenging, our overall understanding of the factors that play a role in post-HT outcomes continues to grow. We observe that many donor risk factors that are deemed "high-risk" do not necessarily always adversely affect post-HT outcomes, but are in fact nuanced and interact with other donor and recipient risk factors. The field of HT continues to evolve, with ongoing development of technologies for organ preservation during transport, expansion of the practice of donation after circulatory death, and proposed changes to organ allocation policy. As such, the field must continue to refine its processes for donor selection and risk prediction in HT.
