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

Heart failure continues to be a worldwide epidemic, effecting over 23 million persons. Despite advances in medical therapy, the disease is progressive and a significant proportion of patients will need advanced heart replacement therapy. Continuous flow assist devices have become a standard approach for many patients both as a bridge to cardiac transplantation and as destination therapy (DT). However, device related complications such as bleeding and thrombosis continue to hinder further advancements of this technology. The field is rapidly advancing and efforts to reduce pump complications are directed towards improving hemocompatibility and maximizing blood flow without clinically significant hemolysis, areas of stasis or turbulent flow.
