1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Left ventricular assist devices are known for the treatment of heart failure. We present a patient who underwent emergent decommissioning of his left ventricular assist device after experiencing life-threatening hemorrhage. In this case, the patient's outflow graft was avulsed from his left subclavian artery. We used a covered stent to first exclude the outflow graft and an Amplatzer II plug (Abbott Cardiovascular) to then occlude the inflow cannula. Accessing the inflow cannula of the left ventricular assist device was challenging. In hindsight, we could have accessed and occluded the outflow graft via the left subclavian artery before deploying the covered stent.
