Utility of natriuretic peptide testing in the evaluation and management of acute decompensated heart failure.
Review in Heart failure reviews, 2010. 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
The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and the amino-terminal fragment of proBNP (NT-proBNP) are increased in heart failure in proportion to severity of symptoms, degree of left ventricular dysfunction, and elevation of cardiac filling pressures. These natriuretic peptides (NPs) are increasingly used for diagnostic and prognostic purposes in acute heart failure. While NP levels on admission provide independent prognostic information, serial determinations during hospitalization and at discharge better reflect adequacy of treatment and prognosis. The addition of BNP and NT-proBNP to usual clinical decision making enhances detection of high-risk patients who need aggressive follow-up and adjustment of treatment.
