Mechanical circulatory support with Impella in percutaneous coronary intervention: current status.
Review in American heart journal plus : cardiology research and practice, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In patients with, or at risk of, hemodynamic instability during percutaneous coronary intervention, maintaining perfusion of vital organs is crucial. The intra-aortic balloon pump and Impella are the two most commonly used percutaneous mechanical circulatory support devices. Intra-aortic balloon pump has been in widespread use for over three decades. Mechanical circulatory support with Impella is being used increasingly often in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, and in those undergoing high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention. Besides improving cardiac output and coronary perfusion, Impella has potential myocardial protective effects. Three key measures that determine the clinical utility of a device are clinical outcome, device-related complications, and cost impact. In this review, the current data on use of Impella in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, in left ventricular unloading in acute myocardial infarction, and in those undergoing high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention is analyzed.
