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

Frailty and sarcopenia are increasingly incorporated in the evaluation of solid organ transplant candidates. There can be adverse outcomes both pre- and post-transplant amongst patients identified as frail. Nutritional deficiencies and chronic illness in intestinal transplantation are known to impact growth and muscle development. As a result, anthropometrics and body composition have been studied amongst patients with intestinal failure. More recently, sarcopenia and frailty are phenotypes that have been identified as independent factors that can impact morbidity and mortality among patients undergoing solid organ transplantation. It is worthwhile to review available knowledge regarding frailty and sarcopenia in both adult and pediatric patients undergoing intestinal transplantation evaluation. This review article summarizes existing data regarding anthropometrics, sarcopenia, and frailty in adult and pediatric patients under consideration for intestinal transplantation. An opinion statement is provided discussing potential means of assessing frailty in this population, along with recommendations in the pre- and post-transplant phases of care.
