Incidence and severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection in lung transplant recipients in the Omicron era.
Article in JHLT open, 2023. 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
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection may cause serious illness in lung transplant recipients. We aimed to investigate incidence and severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection in lung transplant recipients in the Omicron era. We conducted a retrospective study investigating COVID-19 incidence and outcomes among lung transplant recipients between December 27, 2021, and October 31, 2022, in Denmark. We performed COX regression analysis of potential risk factors with hospitalization as an endpoint. Among 236 included patients, 108 had a first positive SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction during a total of 133 person-years of follow-up, resulting in an incidence rate of 813 per 1000 person-years (95% confidence intervals (CI) 670-977). The cumulative incidence of hospitalization was 24.1% (95% CI 26-32.1) and admission to the intensive care unit was 3.7% (95% CI 0.1-6.3). The 30-day mortality of recipients with a SARS-CoV-2 infection was 0.9% (95% CI 0-2.7). We found that the incidence rate of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection was markedly higher, whereas the mortality rate was lower in the omicron era compared to earlier reports for lung transplant recipients conducted in the delta era. On the other hand, a substantial proportion of patients were hospitalized, suggesting a continuous impact on this patient population.
