Native Arteriovenous Fistula Creation in Patients With Continuous Flow Left Ventricular Assist Devices: A Case Report and a Narrative Review.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Worsening of kidney function after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is common, and many patients reaching end-stage kidney disease require long-term dialysis. Permanent vascular access in a patient with LVAD remains a clinical dilemma. There is a theoretical concern about the maturation of the arteriovenous fistula in a patient with LVAD due to the absence of a pulsatile flow in these patients. We described a case of successful creation of a left brachial-cephalic AVF in a patient with continuous flow LVAD (Abbott's HeartMate 3TM), which was used for dialysis without issue.
