Medication management of chronic heart failure in older adults.
Review in Drugs & aging, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Heart failure (HF) is a common problem in older adults. Individuals aged 65 years or older are at a higher risk for developing HF, especially diastolic HF or HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HF can be seen in up to 20 % of adults aged 85 years or older. In contrast to middle-aged (40-64 years) HF patients, multiple cardiac, non-cardiac and geriatric syndrome co-morbidities are seen in elderly HF patients. Additionally, age-related changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics influence medication therapy. Hence, the management of older patients with HF is challenging and treatment should be modified in the light of the above-mentioned conditions. This article discusses the current evidence for medication management in both systolic HF or HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HFpEF, noting, however, the limited data for HFpEF and HFrEF in those 80 years of age or older. The objective of this article is to discuss evidence-based and outcomes-driven pharmacologic management strategies for chronic HF in the older adults for whom functional and other patient-centered outcomes might be more than or as important as clinical outcomes. Optimal management would be expected to help to reduce illness burden, reduce mortality and hospitalizations, and improve function and quality of life.
