Vasoplegia from Continuous Flow Left Ventricular Assist Devices.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewThe contribution of continuous flow left ventricular assist devices (c-LVAD) to vasoplegic syndrome and postoperative outcomes after orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) is contested in the literature. A standardized definition of vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is needed to better recognize and manage vasoplegic shock. RECENT
findingsVasoplegic syndrome occurs after orthotopic heart transplant more frequently than after other surgeries requiring cardiopulmonary bypass. c-LVADs lead to small vessel endothelial dysfunction and desensitized adrenal receptors; however, their contribution to the development of vasoplegia is debated in clinical studies. Pulsatility may mitigate vascular dysfunction resulting from long-term continuous flow, and should be further explored in the clinical setting when considering risk factors for vasoplegic syndrome. The incidence of vasoplegic syndrome after orthotopic heart transplant is rising with the increasing use of c-LVAD bridge to therapy. Robust clinical studies are needed to advance our understanding and approach to mitigating VS after OHT.
