The Individual Impact of Machine Perfusion on Liver and Kidney on Donor Expansion in Simultaneous Liver and Kidney Transplantation.
Article in Transplant international : official journal of the European Society for Organ Transplantation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Machine perfusion (MP) use for both organs can increase organ usage in simultaneous liver and kidney transplantation (SLKT). We analyzed 6,956 SLKT performed between 2015 and 2024 using the United Network for Organ Sharing database. The primary outcomes were the 1-year graft survival for kidney and liver. Donor types and MP use for liver and/or kidney were captured and associations with outcomes were evaluated. SLKT from Donation after circulatory death donors (DCD) increased from 4.5% in 2015 to 16% in 2023. The median Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) has increased from 23% in 2015 to 28% in 2023. MP use for kidney and liver also increased from 21% to 51% and 0%-17%, respectively. KDPI >85% was an independent risk factor of 1-year kidney graft failure in the no kidney MP group [HR 2.03, 95% CI 1.20-3.44, p = 0.009], but not in the kidney MP group. DCD was found to be an independent risk factor of 1-year liver graft failure in the no liver MP group [HR 1.56, 95% CI 1.19-2.03, p = 0.001], but not in the liver MP group. MP for both organs may contribute to expanding the donor pool for SLKT without compromising post-transplant outcomes.
