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

The low 1-year patency rate of mature arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) remains a significant clinical problem. Although vessel properties and biomechanics have been suggested to affect AVF function, understanding their roles in AVF patency failure is challenging owing to the heterogeneity within the patient population, including demographics and comorbid conditions. In this study, we present a case of a patient with 2 upper-arm AVFs with different 1-year patency outcomes and investigate whether they had different histologic features before the AVF creation surgery and biomechanics at 1 day and 6 weeks after the AVF creation surgery using magnetic resonance imaging-based fluid structure interaction simulations. Despite both AVFs being in the upper arm, created <1 year apart by the same surgeon, and having similar preoperative vessel diameters, the 1-year patent AVF had less preoperative intimal collagen and higher wall shear stress 1 day after AVF creation, when compared with the AVF that failed by 1 year. Thus, a low intimal collagen content before the AVF surgery and higher wall shear stress immediately after the AVF creation surgery may be important for long-term AVF patency and should be investigated with larger cohorts.
