Gastrointestinal cancer incidence after lung transplantation in sarcoidosis patients.
Article in Annals of gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: The risk of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer after lung transplantation (LTx) in sarcoidosis patients is not well defined. Given the cancer risks linked to sarcoidosis and organ transplantation, this study investigated the incidence of GI Methods: We analyzed data from the United Network for Organ Sharing registry, including adults with sarcoidosis or IPF who underwent LTx between May 2005 and December 2018. The primary outcome was the incidence of GI DNM by March 2023. Results: Of 7996 lung transplant recipients, 108 (1.35%) developed GI malignancies post-transplantation. Among these, 662 patients (9%) had sarcoidosis and 7334 (91%) had IPF. Sarcoidosis patients showed a non-significant trend toward a higher risk of GI malignancies compared to those with IPF (subhazard ratio 1.72, 95% confidence interval 0.90-3.29; P=0.099), with no observed difference in the risk of non-GI cancers. Conclusions: The overall incidence of GI DNM following LTx is low, and sarcoidosis does not appear to increase the risk of GI cancers compared to IPF. This finding suggests that enhanced GI cancer screening beyond standard guidelines may not be warranted in this population, allowing for targeted surveillance of more prevalent malignancies in sarcoidosis patients post-LTx.
