The Evolving Role of Extracorporeal In Situ Perfusion Technology in Organ Donor Recovery with Donation After Circulatory Determination of Death Organ Donors.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2025. 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
The need for organs suitable for transplantation has continued to rise as need outweighs availability. Increased demand has driven innovation in the field. Over the past ten years, donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors have become a greater portion of the donor pool. This method of donation includes a period of warm ischemia time to the organs. Thus, its use is dependent on recovery methods. Historically, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was one of the first pumping technologies to enhance organ preservation in the potential donor. Subsequently, the adoption of normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) technology has also shown promise in organ transplantation. These technologies have increased utilization of organs and enhanced the pool of donor organs. This review seeks to summarize the literature supporting in situ technologies (ECMO and NRP) utilized in procurement of solid organs from DCD donors. The benefit of in situ perfusion in DCD organ recovery is that these technologies increase the number of organs available for transplantation by reducing ischemic injury. The disadvantages include the added technical aspect, added operating room time, and the increased ethical concerns surrounding these technologies compared to conventional methods of organ recovery.
