Predictors of Primary Arteriovenous Fistula Failure in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease: A Single-Centre Retrospective Cohort.
Article in Health science reports, 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
Background: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for haemodialysis, yet primary failure remains common and its determinants in Southeast Asian populations are incompletely characterised. Methods: We retrospectively analysed 151 AVFs created in 125 adults with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) at a tertiary hospital (2020-2022). The primary outcome was AVF failure, defined as an access that never became usable for haemodialysis (primary non-function, early occlusion, or non-maturation). Results: Primary failure occurred in 34/151 fistulas (22.5%). Failure rates differed by configuration: 9.3% for brachiocephalic, 26.0% for radiocephalic (wrist), and 50.0% for brachiobasilic fistulas ( Conclusions: Low BMI was associated with a higher risk of primary AVF failure. The observed differences among AVF configurations should be interpreted with caution because the choice of access type was likely influenced by patient and vascular characteristics. Preoperative vessel diameter, however, was not significantly associated with failure in this cohort.
