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

Background Congestive heart failure is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. One of the signs of congestive heart failure is fluid overload including pulmonary edema, peripheral edema, and ascites. The cause of fluid overload remains incompletely understood, and management of these patients continues to be a challenge. The role of lymphatic circulation abnormalities in the cause and pathophysiology of fluid overload also remains unclear. Here we report on a study in a large animal model of right heart failure caused by severe tricuspid regurgitation comparing cardiovascular and lymphatic findings in a group of animals that did not develop ascites with a group of animals that developed ascites. Methods and Results Thirteen Yorkshire pigs were included in this study divided into 2 groups. Group 1 included 6 animals that did not develop ascites, and Group 2 included 7 animals that had developed ascites. The groups were compared on hemodynamic parameters as well as comparison of the animal's lymphatic anatomy and function. There was no difference between the groups in degree of tricuspid regurgitation and central venous pressure, with inferior vena cava pressure measuring 11.6±1.6 versus 13.2±3.7 (
