Transforming transplantation access: A federal directive for comprehensive pre-waitlisting data collection.
Article in American journal of transplantation : official journal of the American Society of Transplantation and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
There is substantial variation in access to transplantation across the United States that is not entirely explained by the availability of donor organs. Barriers to transplantation and variation in care among patients with end-stage organ disease exist prior to patients' placement on a transplant waiting list as well as following waitlist placement. However, there are currently no national data available to examine rates and variations in key care processes related to prelisting, including transplant referral, evaluation, or candidate selection. In February of 2024, the Health Resources and Services Administration released a directive and, in November 2024, released for public comment the proposed expansion of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network data collection to include pre-waitlist data for all solid organ transplant patients to promote transparency across the transplant continuum. Although data elements and details have not been finalized, the purpose of this article is to detail the rationale and anticipated details for pre-waitlisting data collection to inform the transplant community. These data aim to examine care processes and barriers to care for patients with end-stage organ disease in the United States.
