SIENA Score and CVP/PCWP Predict Mid-Term Prognosis After LVAD Implantation: A Single-Center Study.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Background: Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is a valuable alternative as a bridge to transplant but also as a destination therapy in ineligible patients. Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a major cause of short- and long-term mortality post-LVAD. We aimed to validate echocardiographic and hemodynamic parameters predictive of RVF and adverse outcomes post-LVAD; (2) Methods: We screened a population of patients with end-stage heart failure selected for LVAD implantation according to SIENA protocol and standard international indications, including right heart catheterization (RHC). Individuals were followed up for 1 year with different time points for the development of RVF (primary endpoint) or mortality and hospitalization (secondary endpoint); (3) Results: The population included 29 patients with a mean age of 63 ± 7 years with a mean ejection fraction of 23 ± 4%, mostly due to ischemic etiology. All the patients had a SIENA protocol score of 0-1 before LVAD, and none met the primary endpoint. Regarding the secondary endpoint, among all the tested clinical, laboratory, echo, and RHC indices, only a central venous pressure/wedge pressure (CVP/PCWP) ratio > 0.63 was significantly associated with adverse outcomes (ß = 2.99,
