Heart rate reduction in heart failure: ivabradine or beta blockers?
Review in Heart failure reviews, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ivabradine, a selective I f current inhibitor, decreasing the heart rate in those with sinus rhythm, has been added to the most recent European guidelines on heart failure. It is indicated in addition to beta blockers in patients with decreased left ventricular ejection fraction and sinus rate of over 70 beats per minute. Several well-designed studies including the BEAUTIFUL and the SHIFT trials demonstrated clear benefits of ivabradine in symptomatic patients, both with angina and with heart failure, with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. The main objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary of data on ivabradine, and to discuss the potential role of this new agent in the spectrum of modern therapeutics for heart failure.
