Successful implantation and removal of Impella 5.5 device via a 4-mm subclavian artery in an adult patient.
Article in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Recently, the utilization of Impella 5.5, especially in the axillary position, has increased exponentially. The device provides excellent hemodynamic support for patients in cardiogenic shock, as a bridge to recover, transplant, or durable left ventricular device. However, small size arteries remain its main limitation. With a maximum diameter of 19 Fr (6.33 mm), the recommended artery size needed for implantation is 7 mm. In this case, we discuss the successful implantation and removal of the Impella 5.5 device into a patient, with a subclavian artery diameter of 4 mm, whose other short- and mid-term options for mechanical circulatory support were limited.
