Acute study of clinical effectiveness of nesiritide in decompensated heart failure: nesiritide redux.
Article in Current heart failure reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Nesiritide, a synthetic drug form of human B-type natriuretic peptide, is approved for the early treatment of dyspnea in acute decompensated heart failure. Meta-analyses suggested a risk of worsening renal insufficiency and mortality with its use. Therefore, the Acute Study of Clinical Effectiveness in Decompensated Heart Failure (ASCEND-HF) was designed as a prospective, multicenter, double-blind, randomized trial to examine the use of nesiritide in this common, morbid, and often lethal clinical condition. Two coprimary end points, dyspnea and 30-day hospital readmission or death, were chosen to examine symptomatic response and objective outcomes, respectively. Preliminary reports from ASCEND-HF investigators suggest no significant improvement in symptoms or clinical outcomes, although no adverse effect on mortality or renal function was noted. We recommend the continued use of nesiritide in acute decompensated heart failure as an individualized case-based therapy to those patients who meet criteria for treatment and are expected to receive benefit from its use.
