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

Advances in solid organ transplantation, such as improved organ preservation technologies and novel approaches to immunosuppression management, have the potential to improve outcomes in transplant recipients. However, despite these developments, there are persistent disparities in access to transplantation across, and within, certain countries. Low-income and middle-income countries have particularly low rates of transplantation, as well as less access to new technologies, mainly due to limited infrastructure and resources. Additionally, marginalised groups, especially racially and ethnically minoritised people and individuals from low socioeconomic backgrounds, might be most susceptible to these inequities worldwide. In this Series paper, we focus on how policies can advance equity in the field of transplantation, both within individual health systems and across different countries. We propose policy solutions to make progress towards equity in access to transplantation and better outcomes for all patients with end-stage organ disease who could benefit from transplantation.
