Biventricular circulatory support using single-device and dual-device configurations: Initial pump characterization in simulated heart failure model.

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
Objective: Severe biventricular heart failure (BHF) can be remedied using a biventricular assist device (BVAD). Two devices are currently in development: a universal ventricular assist device (UVAD), which will be able to assist either the left, right, or both ventricles, and a continuous-flow total artificial heart (CFTAH), which replaces the entire heart. In this study, the Methods: For this experiment, a biventricular mock circulatory loop utilizes two pneumatic pumps (Abiomed AB5000™, Danvers, MA, USA), in conjunction with a dual-output driver, to create heart failure (HF) conditions (left, LHF; right, RHF; biventricular, BHF). Systolic BHF for four different situations were replicated. In each situation, CFTAH and UVAD devices were installed and operated at two distinct speeds, and cannulations for ventricular and atrial connections were evaluated. Results: Both CFTAH and UVAD setups achieved our recommended hemodynamic criteria. The dual-UVAD arrangement yielded a better atrial balance to alleviate LHF and RHF. For moderate and severe BHF scenarios, CFTAH and dual UVADs both created excellent atrial pressure balance. Conversely, when CFTAH was atrial cannulated for LHF and RHF, the needed atrial pressure balance was not met. Conclusion: Comprehensive
