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

Infections remain a main cause of morbidity and mortality following orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Patients with end-stage liver cirrhosis exhibit a deregulation of their immune response, making them more susceptible to infections. From a prospective database, we retrospectively assessed the ability of preoperative lymphopenia, as a marker of this immune dysregulation, to predict the occurrence of early postoperative bacterial infections during post-OLT ICU hospitalization in patients with cirrhosis. Between January 2011 and December 2021, we included 445 patients. Post-OLT infections occurred in 92 patients (21%) and were mainly represented by bacteriemia (39%), pneumonia (37%) and surgical site infection (30%). Preoperative lymphocyte count ≤1.150 × 10
