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

purpose of reviewRecent developments in high-throughput DNA and RNA sequencing technologies have facilitated the development of noninvasive assays to monitor heart transplant rejection. In this review, we summarize existing assays employed for the surveillance of allograft rejection, as well as promising future directions for such tests in the molecular biology field. RECENT

findingsThe AlloMap genome expression profiling assay remains the only noninvasive test for rejection surveillance and is incorporated into the International Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation guidelines. Other efforts have focused on messenger RNA (mRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) as potential viable biomarkers. Mitochondrial pathways in allograft necroptosis and inflammation signaling may represent a novel direction for future research endeavors. Although endomyocardial biopsy remains the gold standard, several converging areas of molecular biology could soon yield successful alternative methods of heart transplant rejection monitoring, with the distinct advantage of avoiding procedural complications.
