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

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is preferred for hemodialysis. However, early thrombosis often leads to failure. Hence, this observational study of 200 patients compared AVF outcomes with and without intraoperative heparin use. Thrombosis within 30 days was significantly lower in the heparin group (11% vs. 25%, p = 0.01). Smaller vein diameter was an independent risk factor, while heparin improved maturation and short-term patency. Despite minor bleeding, heparin prophylaxis was safe and may reduce early AVF failure.
