Cross-sectional imaging for presurgical planning of dialysis circuit vascular access creation in the end stage renal disease patient population.

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
This systematic review explores the role of cross-sectional imaging modalities-computed tomography angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA)-in the preoperative planning of dialysis vascular access for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). A systematic search was conducted using PubMed and Cochrane databases, yielding 45 studies meeting inclusion criteria. These modalities are particularly valuable in cases of complex vascular anatomy, central venous stenosis, and prior surgical interventions. Findings emphasize the advantages of CTA for detailed anatomical mapping and MRA for cases requiring soft-tissue contrast or preservation of renal function. Representative clinical cases illustrate how imaging findings directly influence surgical and endovascular decision-making, optimizing patient outcomes. This manuscript describes the role of cross-sectional imaging for dialysis circuit vascular access interventions including representative clinical examples.
