A multicenter analysis of lung transplantation outcomes comparing donation after circulatory death and donation after brain death.
Article in JHLT open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 8 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: Donor organ shortage is a barrier to lung transplantation. Donation after circulatory death (DCD) may offer a solution, although it is underutilized. The objective of this study was to compare survival and other postoperative outcomes between DCD and donation after brain death (DBD). Methods: We performed a multicenter analysis of Multi-Institutional Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) Registry data from 11 lung transplant centers in the United States and Europe. Demographics and clinical parameters were compared using chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. Survival was assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves and compared by log-rank test with propensity score matching. Results: Of 1,585 patients included in the study, 135 (8.5%) received DCD lungs and 1,450 (91.5%) received DBD lungs. DCD recipients had higher rates of obstructive lung disease ( Conclusions: Overall, our data showed excellent 90-day survival for DCD and DBD recipients, although DCD recipients had relatively lower survival. EVLP was not associated with survival, which may guide future strategies to optimize DCD utilization.
