In one paragraph

Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

The prevalence of heart failure (HF) has been on the rise with associated increase in hospitalizations, morbidity and mortality. These hospitalizations have led to increasingly more cost on and decreased quality of life for patients. CardioMEMS is one of the newer devices designed to help tackle this issue by allowing for better monitoring of HF patients. This device also allows for accurate recording of pulmonary artery pressures (PAPs) and has also been applied in various other areas, such as aneurysmal tears, for monitoring pressures. In this manuscript we will review the current state of CardioMEMS HF system and investigate some of the other areas for its promising use in the field.
