Kidney health and function with left ventricular assist devices.
Review in Current opinion in nephrology and hypertension, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purpose of reviewMechanical circulatory support (MCS) is a group of evolving therapies used for indications ranging from temporary support during a cardiac procedure to permanent treatment of advanced heart failure. MCS is primarily used to support left ventricle function, in which case the devices are termed left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). Kidney dysfunction is common in patients requiring these devices, yet the impact of MCS itself on kidney health in many settings remains uncertain. RECENT
findingsKidney dysfunction can manifest in many different forms in patients requiring MCS. It can be because of preexisting systemic disorders, acute illness, procedural complications, device complications, and long-term LVAD support. After durable LVAD implantation, most persons have improvement in kidney function; however, individuals can have markedly different kidney outcomes, and novel phenotypes of kidney outcomes have been identified. SUMMARY: MCS is a rapidly evolving field. Kidney health and function before, during, and after MCS is relevant to outcomes from an epidemiologic perspective, yet the pathophysiology underlying this is uncertain. Improved understanding of the relationship between MCS use and kidney health is important to improving patient outcomes.
