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

backgroundThe evaluation of pulsatile flow created by the new Cleveland Clinic continuous-flow total artificial heart (CFTAH100), which has a re-designed right impeller and motor, had not been tested in vivo. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of pulsatility with the CFTAH100 during the application of pump speed modulation protocols in a chronic animal model.

methodsA 30-day chronic animal experiment was conducted with a calf. Five pulsatile studies were performed on the alert animal. The mean pump speed was set at 2800 rpm, and modulated sinusoidally within a range of 0 to ± 35% of mean speed, in increments of 5% at 80 beats per minute (bpm). The pressures and pump flow were collected and a pulsatility index (PI) was calculated.

resultsThe calf was supported with the CFTAH100 without any major complications. The maximum and minimum pump flows changed significantly from baseline in all conditions, while the mean pump flow did not change. All flow pulsatility (FP) readings in all conditions significantly increased from baseline, and the percent modulation (%S) and FP had a strong positive correlation (r = 0.99, p  <  0.01). The PI also increased significantly in all conditions (maximum at %S of 35%, 2.2  ±  0.05, p < 0.01), and a positive correlation between %S and PI (r = 0.99, p < 0.01) was observed.

conclusionThe CFTAH100 showed the feasibility of creating pulsatile circulation with sinusoidal pump speed modulation.
