Global strategies to improve equitable access to heart and lung transplantation- ISHLT Consortium Report.
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
Background: Many inequities exist in the global access of heart and lung transplantation. Few studies have identified global strategies to implement equitable access to heart or lung transplantation. Methods: Members of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) developed a consortium to identify strategic priorities to improve global access to heart and lung transplantation according to the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation- Behavior Change Wheel Model (COM-B/ BCW), an implementation science framework. Initial workshops were held at the ISHLT Scientific Sessions and refined with follow-up focus group meetings of consortium members from 2025 through 2026. Results: Focus 1 was to improve quality of transplant data for access and outcomes; prioritized behavior included: 1) improving collection of social determinants of health, race, and ethnicity data, and 2) collecting data on patients referred but not listed. Focus 2 was to improve transplant access to diverse racial and ethnic populations; prioritized behavior included: 1) increasing transparency regarding candidacy and allocation, and 2) improving awareness regarding diverse patient and community needs for transplant consideration. Focus 3 was to improve access with patient-centered approaches; prioritized behavior included: individualizing a comprehensive patient assessment and plan. Focus 4 was to develop transplant programs in under-resourced countries; prioritized behaviors included: 1) developing a national or regional heart and lung transplant infrastructure and workforce plan, and 2) identifying and designating transplant capable centers as pilot hubs or consortium nodes. Conclusions: An ISHLT consortium developed and prioritized strategies for behavior change to improve global access to heart and lung transplantation. These strategies may form the basis of global quality improvement and implementation research studies for transplantation equity.
