A right ventricular state of mind in the progression of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: implications for left ventricular assist device therapy.
Review in Heart failure reviews, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Right ventricular (RV) function in patients with preexisting left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction is key to determining prognosis and identifying appropriate candidates for cardiac replacement therapy. This becomes particularly relevant during selection for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy, since adequate cardiac output, differently from heart transplantation, still relies on native RV function. Importantly, accumulating evidence indicates that RV failure (RVF) carries detrimental consequences of progressive end-organ dysfunction due to systemic venous congestion-mediated inflammation and oxidative stress. Therefore, it is crucial to detect RVF early on in the disease state through heightened clinical suspicion and noninvasive and/or invasive modalities before the RV fails and organ damage ensues, precluding patients from life saving measures such as LVAD therapy. The purpose of this review is to discuss the pathogenesis of RVF, its systemic consequences, implications for pre- and post-LVAD management, and its impact on clinical outcomes.
