Comparison of different anastomosis angles in radiocephalic fistula with modified functional end-to-side anastomosis.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveFunctional vein end to arterial side (ETS) anastomosis uses vein side to arterial side anastomosis with distal vein ligation, which is different from traditional ETS anastomosis. To date, there are no studies concerning different anastomotic angles of fistula with functional ETS anastomosis. The purpose of the study was to analyze the clinical outcomes concerning different anastomotic angles of functional ETS anastomosis in radiocephalic fistula.
methodsBetween January 2018 and December 2020, we performed a prospective cohort study concerning functional ETS anastomosis in radiocephalic fistula. According to vascular anatomy of patients, the anastomosis angles of fistula were designed at 30 ≤ angle ≤ 50°, 50 < angle ≤ 70°, and 135° smooth obtuse angle. The end points were the primary patency rate (PPR), the secondary patency rate (SPR) and the cumulative rate of reintervention (CRR) near anastomotic venous segment.
results124 patients with functional ETS anastomosiss were enrolled in this study. Pearson χ
conclusion30-50°were the best anastomotic angles for functional ETS anastomosis, which had the highest PPR and lowest CRR near anastomotic venous segment.
