The Total Artificial Heart: A Historical Perspective.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
Scientists, physicians, and engineers have long endeavored to develop a device capable of replacing the function of the heart. The objective is to create a machine or pump for patients suffering from advanced biventricular heart failure, where survival until transplantation is feasible. These total artificial hearts are designed to sustain the patient until a donor heart becomes available. This review aims to present an overview and historical context of the development of the total artificial heart, analyze the currently utilized devices, and briefly discuss future technological innovations in total artificial heart systems.
