Increasing risk of postlung transplant hospitalizations for infection: An analysis of recent trends.
Article in JHLT open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Despite advancements in lung transplantation (LT), infection remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality following LT. We examined trends in hospitalizations for infection in the first year after LT. Methods: We identified adult LT recipients in the United States (March 1, 2018-March 9, 2023) using the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network database. We categorized transplants into 3 eras to account for the Composite Allocation Score allocation policy change and coronavirus disease 2019: March 2018 to March 2020, March 2020 to March 2022, and March 2022 to March 9, 2023. One-year post-LT survival was compared using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression. Hospitalizations for infection were compared using multivariable logistic regression, adjusted for era and donor and recipient characteristics. Results: Of 12,388 LT recipients (median age = 62, male = 61.2%), hospitalization for infection in the first-year post transplant was 5.2% for patients transplanted from March 2018 to March 2020 (N = 5,031), 7.6% from March 2020 to March 2022 (N = 4,659), and 13.2% post-March 2022 (N = 3,640) ( Conclusions: Odds of hospitalization for infection in the first year after LT performed between March 2020 and March 2022 and post-March 2022 were 1.50 and 2.89 times as high, respectively, as LT performed between March 2018 and March 2020.
