Outcome Through the Years of Left-Ventricular Assist Devices Therapy for End-Stage Heart Failure: A Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Heart transplantation remains the gold standard surgical treatment for advanced heart failure. Over time, medical therapies have achieved remarkable outcomes in terms of survival and quality of life, yet their results may be insufficient, even when maximized. The limited availability of organ donors and the selective criteria for heart transplant eligibility have led to a significant rise in the utilization of long-term mechanical circulatory support, including left ventricular assist devices. Patients receiving LVADs often present with multiple comorbidities, constituting a highly vulnerable population. Individuals living with LVADs may experience various long-term complications, such as bleeding, driveline infections, neurological events, and right ventricular dysfunction. Fortunately, the development of increasingly biocompatible LVAD devices in recent years has resulted in a notable reduction in these complications. This review aims to summarize the principal complications encountered by patients with LVADs throughout their treatment and the associated daily management strategies.
