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

The control of linear growth from fetal life through adolescence is complex and variable. Many factors, intrinsic and extrinsic, can affect growth at all stages of transplant. In this review, we highlight the normal process of linear growth. We describe factors affecting growth before heart transplant and review the typical patterns of growth after transplant. We review ways to optimize growth during all stages of transplantation, and finally we highlight the limited experience with recombinant human growth hormone in heart and other solid organ transplants.
