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

The use of ventricular assist device (VAD) therapy for advanced heart failure in infants and children with single-ventricle (SV) congenital heart disease (CHD) has expanded rapidly. However, issues pertaining to patient size, developmental hemostasis, device availability, complicated anatomy, and complex modes of hemodynamic/circulatory failure associated with each stage of SV palliation make VAD support particularly challenging in this population. Over the last 20 years, there has been significant improvement in support outcomes for this complex population; however, survival and rates of adverse events still lag behind children with other diagnoses. Herein, we review current mechanical circulatory support approaches, ongoing challenges, and outcomes for patients with SV CHD.
