Effect of chronic lung allograft dysfunction phenotypes on the outcome after lung retransplantation: A retrospective single-center data analysis.
Article in JTCVS open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: Although retransplantation is the main therapeutic option for end-stage chronic lung allograft dysfunction, several transplant centers consider the "restrictive allograft syndrome" phenotype a contraindication. This selection policy is based on a limited body of literature. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of chronic lung allograft dysfunction phenotypes according to new chronic lung allograft dysfunction definitions with outcomes after retransplantation. Methods: This study was a retrospective single-center analysis including patients undergoing lung retransplantation due to chronic lung allograft dysfunction between 2000 and 2021. Results: Seventy patients were included in the analysis, 73% had bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, 20% had a mixed phenotype, and 7% had restrictive allograft syndrome. The length of surgery was comparable between the groups. No difference was observed in terms of intraoperative use of packed red blood cells ( Conclusions: This analysis showed that retransplantation remains a challenging procedure. However, careful patient selection allows excellent outcomes irrespective of chronic lung allograft dysfunction phenotypes.
