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

Lung transplantation is an established management strategy for advanced end-stage lung disease with the goal of restoring normal pulmonary physiology. This principle guided our management approach to the clinical challenge of a lung transplant recipient with a small chest cavity from fibrotic lung disease. Size matching should occur based on the recipient's predicted total lung capacity, which best reflects the recipient's normal chest cavity size. We present an instructive case that suggests that the small chest cavity size adjusts relatively quickly toward normal once the fibrotic lungs are removed, and normal allograft is implanted.
