The total artificial heart: where have we been, where are we now, where are we going?
Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 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
The incidence and prevalence of end-stage heart failure continue to rise; however, the number of donor hearts available for transplantation continues to be limited. Therefore, alternatives to transplantation, such as the use of total artificial hearts (TAH), are necessary. The long and winding road to the development and implantation of the ideal TAH remains under construction. Although efforts have been ongoing for almost a century, researchers and clinicians continue to improve currently available TAHs and design and construct new models. With mortality and morbidity rates decreasing, particularly at high-volume centers with a dedicated team and carefully selected patients, the use of TAHs as a bridge to transplantation, and even destination therapy in clinical trials, the future of TAHs is bright.
