History of intestinal transplantation in Australia.

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
Intestinal transplantation was introduced into Australia in 2010 to meet the need of a small number of patients with irreversible intestinal failure who would otherwise need to travel abroad to access this life-saving therapy. Due to small case numbers, a single center based in Melbourne, Victoria, services all of Australia and New Zealand. Centralization of clinical activity has resulted in excellent patient outcomes, with 5-year graft and patient survival matching that of the more experienced international centers. However, on the path to establishing a successful service, multiple significant challenges were encountered, including training of staff, surgical and immunosuppression protocol development, and donor organ acceptance and recipient allocation based on the vast geography of Australia. Deficiencies in intestinal failure management on a national level have posed some further concerns regarding timely access to and referral for transplantation. Herein we discuss the establishment of an intestinal transplant service in Australia, how challenges were overcome and what barriers remain.
