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

In this review we investigate the role of particulate and soluble guanylate cyclase (pGC and sGC, respectively) pathways in heart failure, and several novel drugs that modify guanylate cyclase. Nesiritide and ularitide/urodilatin are natriuretic peptides with vasodilating, natriuretic and diuretic effects, acting on pGC, whilst cinaciguat (BAY 58-2667) is a novel sGC activator. Cinaciguat has a promising and novel mode of action because it can stimulate cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate synthesis by targeting sGC in its nitric oxide-insensitive, oxidised ferric (Fe(3+)) or haem-free state. Thus, cinaciguat may also be effective under oxidative stress conditions resulting in oxidised or haem-free sGC refractory to traditional organic nitrate therapies. Preliminary studies of cinaciguat in patients with acute decompensated heart failure show substantial improvements in haemodynamics and symptoms, whilst maintaining renal function.
