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

Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is used to evaluate donor lungs prior to lung transplantation. Development of pulmonary edema during EVLP is generally thought to represent inflammatory breakdown of the air-fluid barrier and these lungs are declined for transplant. We present the case of a donor lung that underwent stapled wedge resection during cold storage for air leak and the subsequent development of profound (∼650 mL) pulmonary edema around the staple line during EVLP. Nevertheless, the edema cleared shortly after implantation. This report illustrates the potential for significant alveolar fluid clearance and sealing of vascular injury after implantation when edema is not caused by inflammatory injury.
