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

Background: Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) accounts for significant long-term morbidity and mortality in heart transplant recipients; limited data exist for donation after circulatory death (DCD). Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) assessment is a gold standard for early diagnosis of CAV and has strong prognostic power. Methods: We evaluated all consecutive circulatory and brain death heart transplant recipients from January 2020 to March 2022. Patients were followed for need for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), development of severe allograft vasculopathy, or death. Among 143 heart transplant recipients, 39 received circulatory death and 104 received brain death hearts. Results: Baseline characteristics were similar between groups: median age (56.3 vs 53.7 years, Conclusion: In DCD heart transplant recipients, circulatory death donors did not have a significantly higher risk for coronary allograft vasculopathy by IVUS or related complications at 1 year following transplantation.
