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

Prosthetic arteriovenous grafts have an inferior patency rate and greater morbidity than those with autogenous vessels and are therefore considered as secondary or tertiary vascular access for hemodialysis in patients with fatigued or unsuitable superficial arm veins. Prior access planning in accordance of patient characteristics, careful operative procedure and appropriate revision of complications can ensure long-term functioning of a vascular access using a large variety of possible prosthetic conduits. Arteriovenous grafts remain essential in vascular access surgery and their role may be increasing with higher comorbidities of patients and should be preferred to tunnelled cuffed catheters. This article reviews the indications, alternative configurations and characteristics of arteriovenous grafts.
