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

introductionWhen created in appropriately selected patients, arteriovenous fistula requires fewer interventions and costs compared to arteriovenous graft. The outcome of radiocephalic after brachiocephalic and redo arteriovenous fistula is not studied well in the literature, and this study highlights the outcome of these arteriovenous fistulae.

methodsThe retrospective, single-center study, based on patient record analysis of 1040 arteriovenous fistula, was created between January 2017 and October 2021. Thirty-nine (3.37%) patients met the inclusion criteria for radiocephalic after brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula group, and 42 (4.04%) met the inclusion criteria for the redo arteriovenous fistula group. Preoperative Doppler ultrasound was performed by the operating surgeon in all patients. All patients were scheduled for a visit 2 months after surgery for assessment-only 34 of radiocephalic after brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula and 35 of redo arteriovenous fistula patients presented for follow-up. The arteriovenous fistula was assessed for patency, maturation, and complications. SPSS version 22 (Chicago, USA) was used for data entry and analysis.

resultsThe redo arteriovenous fistula has a significantly lower maturation rate at 2 months of follow-up (62.85%) when compared to other brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (79.18%) (

conclusionThe feasibility of doing radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula after failed brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula is generally overlooked. The redo arteriovenous fistula is more technically challenging, associated with higher complications, but it provides reliable access in a specific group of patients.
