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

Mechanical circulatory support is a life-saving therapy that will become either a bridge-to-transplantation or definitive therapy if heart transplantation is not possible. Failing hearts supported by a ventricular assist device  were often found to recover at molecular and cellular level but translation of these changes into functionally-stable cardiac recovery allowing long-term heart transplantation/ventricular assist device-free outcomes after weaning from ventricular assist device is relatively rare and related to the etiology, severity and duration of myocardial damage. The reason for the discrepancy between high recovery rates on the cellular and molecular levels and the low rate of cardiac recovery allowing ventricular assist device explantation is unknown.
