Dysfunctional Implantable Pulmonary Artery Sensor Device (CardioMEMS) in Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension.

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
Implantable hemodynamic devices like the CardioMEMS HF System are commonly used to manage fluid status in patients with heart failure (HF) by measuring pulmonary pressures. Although CardioMEMS has been shown to reduce HF hospitalizations, rare complications (eg, device endothelialization) can occur and warrant clinical attention. A 67-year-old woman with HF with preserved ejection fraction and group 2 pulmonary hypertension experienced recurrent HF exacerbations. Despite optimal therapy, she was not a candidate for advanced HF therapies. The CardioMEMS device, initially effective for fluid management, showed dampened waveforms due to endothelialization, leading to reimplantation. Endothelialization is a rare but significant complication that can dampen pressure waveforms. Proper placement in vessels larger than 7 mm and careful monitoring of waveforms can help manage this issue. Device recalibration can usually address most cases; however, reimplantation may be required.
