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

Lung transplantation (LTx) continues to be the primary curative intervention for end-stage lung disease, with post-transplant outcomes demonstrating substantial improvements in recent years. The present review summarizes recent advancements in the application of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) during LTx as a diagnostic strategy for associated complications. TEE offers notable benefits for intraoperative monitoring during LTx, including the assessment of cardiac function, vascular anastomosis evaluation, support for cannula positioning and the management of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Comprehensive TEE knowledge is essential for anesthesiologists to optimize pharmacological interventions and enable early detection of intraoperative complications. This technique enhances clinical decision-making, thereby supporting the efficacy and safety of anesthesia management.
