OMICS Analyses in Xenotransplantation: Initial Findings, Key Precautions, and Virus Infections.
Review in Xenotransplantation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
OMICS analyses have the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of rejection and other processes in xenotransplantation. These approaches may therefore contribute to extending the survival time of xenotransplants. Initial OMICS studies in brain-dead patients following transplantation of pig kidneys or hearts revealed increased expression of genes associated with humoral immune responses. This included activation of monocytes, macrophages, and natural killer (NK) cells, as well as endothelial activation, complement activation, and T cell development. Such multimodal deep phenotyping has been proposed as a potential game-changer in the field of xenotransplantation. However, it is essential to consider that viral infections may significantly influence the results of these analyses. Viruses are known to alter gene expression patterns, not only within the immune system but also in endothelial cells and other tissue compartments. Depending on the type of virus, the immune response may either be stimulated-as the host reacts against the infection-or suppressed, in cases involving immunosuppressive viruses. Therefore, integration of comprehensive virus screening is essential in such studies.
