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

(1) Background: Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) represent mechanical support in end-stage congestive heart failure and are characterized by satisfactory long-term results. Uric acid (UA) represents one of the early heart failure markers whose usefulness was postulated in clinical practice. (2) Methods: Twenty-nine male patients with a median age of 58 (51-62) years were referred for LVAD implantation due to end-stage congestive heart failure in the mean (SD) New York Heart Association (NYHA) status class 3.3 (0.6). Preoperative and postoperative right ventricular (RV) characteristics were compared with serum uric acid concentration within 12 (8-15) months following the implantation. (3) Results: Significant correlations between postoperative uric acid concentration and right ventricular dimension (r = 0.604,
