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

Therapy with an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor is established for reducing excessive blood pressure, reducing mortality in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), preventing the development of CHF in patients with asymptomatic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, and preventing death and CHF when initiated early after the onset of acute myocardial infarction (MI). Although these benefits have been attributed largely to hemodynamic mechanisms, recent preclinical and clinical evidence reveal ACE inhibition as potent in preventing ischemic events and in blocking an array of ischemic processes, including atherogenesis. A major contributor to this new evidence is the large, placebo-controlled Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation (HOPE) trial, which found that the ACE inhibitor ramipril ( 10 mg daily) prevented MI and other ischemic events in patients with a broad range of cardiovascular (CV) risks (including coronary artery disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, or diabetes plus one additional risk factor) but no LV dysfunction or history of heart failure at baseline. The data from the HOPE trial suggest a greatly expanded role for ramipril in the prevention and management of CV disease.
