A Narrative Review of Experimental Assessment to Study Vascular Biomaterials Infections and Infectability.
Review in EJVES vascular forum, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Many experimental studies have been conducted to evaluate vascular and endovascular graft infections (VGEIs) and infectability in order to elaborate strategies to prevent or to treat their occurrence. A systematic literature search was conducted to collect and summarise key features of infection and infectability assessment techniques in VGEI experimental models. Methods: The literature search was conducted using the Medline and Cochrane databases, with no limit on the date of publication, until 10 August 2021. Results: A total of 243 studies were included in the review: 55 Conclusion: Many experimental tools are available to study VGEIs, but to improve their reproducibility and scientific reliability research protocols must be standardised and include sonication of grafts before microbiological culture. Moreover, the key role of the biofilm in VGEI physiopathology must be taken into account in future studies.
