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

Evidence is not homogeneous on indicators able to monitor and assess quality performance for organ donation. This may be related to differences in healthcare organizations among countries but also to the scarcity of data on this topic so far. In the present review, we assessed available evidence on quality metrics in solid organ procurement in the United States and in Europe by means of a PubMed search. Evidence was summarized according to countries, considering that the donation and transplantation systems differ from country to country. In United States, the assessment of these indicators is periodically performed by the national network for organ sharing to evaluate the performance of each Organ Procurement Organization (OPO). Quality metrics consider several factors, in primis population characteristics (
