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 gold standard treatment for end-stage heart failure is heart transplantation; however, the rate of transplantation remains inadequate because of the paucity of organ donation. The left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has been used as a bridge therapy before transplantation. The LVAD is being used increasingly because it reduces mortality despite the accompanying morbidities. Therefore, the anesthetic management of LVAD-related morbidities is important and requires experience and knowledge. Herein, we describe a 60-year-old male patient with an LVAD with complaints of right hemiparesis, dysphasia, and facial paralysis. We aim to present the anesthetic management of a patient with intracranial hemorrhage who underwent LVAD exchange due to thrombosis.
