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

Implantations of Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs) have significantly improved quality of life and life expectancy of end-stage heart failure patients. However, despite the advancements in the VAD designs and patient management protocols, the VAD recipients remain at risk of attaining bleeding, infection, pump thrombosis, and stroke. Although blood trauma has been suggested as a critical factor in development of these adverse events, its consequences in inducing interactions between different types of blood cells are largely unknown. Following our recent findings on erythrocyte and leukocyte trauma in VAD recipients, we decided to explore interactions between erythrocytes and leukocytes by perfusing human whole blood through two different types of VADs, HeartMate II (HMII) and HeartMate 3 (HM3), concurrently in their respective Blood Circulatory Loop (BCL). By using a flow cytometry assay, we found increasing association between erythrocytes and leukocytes as VADs propelled blood through their BCLs. This time-dependent intercellular association was shown by increasing concomitant events of stained CD235a (specifically expressed on erythrocytes) and stained CD45 (specifically expressed on leukocytes) in the CD235a
