Incidence and impact of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke after left ventricular assist device implantation: A nationwide study.
Article in Indian heart journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundDespite noteworthy advancements in the design of the left ventricular assist device (LVAD), stroke remains one of the most significant adverse events. This study aims to analyze the incidence and short-term outcomes associated with stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic) after implantation of LVAD.
methodsStudy cohorts were identified from the National Inpatient Sample database from January 2009 to September 2015 using the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes. The primary outcome was an incidence of stroke, and secondary outcomes were the associated mortality, length of stay, and cost of hospitalization. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze adjusted in-hospital mortality.
resultsUse of LVADs increased significantly from 2009 to 2014 (2278 in 2009 to 3730 in 2014 [P
conclusionThe incidence of stroke was ~7% after LVAD placement, and it was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality and resource utilization.
