Bridging strategies for heart-lung transplantation: Current concepts and mechanical support modalities.
Review in JHLT open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Heart-lung transplantation (HLTx) has become increasingly rare over the past decades. However, HLTx remains the only life-saving option for patients experiencing end-stage cardiopulmonary failure. In parallel, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has emerged as an established bridging strategy to isolated heart or lung transplantation. The role of ECMO before HLTx remains poorly defined, with current evidence limited to small series and case reports. Bridging patients to HLTx is complex, as support must address both gas exchange and hemodynamic instability in a highly heterogeneous population. The choice and configuration of ECMO must therefore be personnalized, guided by the patient's underlying disease and the expected duration of support.
