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

backgroundHeart failure is associated with low-grade inflammation. In the present study we sought to assess the prognostic impact of orosomucoid, a marker of inflammation, in outpatients with heart failure.

methodsIn outpatients with chronic heart failure (no change in clinical status and/or therapy >3 months prior to inclusion), baseline levels of orosomucoid were determined. Clinical follow-up was obtained and the rate of heart failure-related deaths and hospitalisations recorded.

resultsA total of 134 patients (median age 71, 33.3 % female, mean left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] 36 %) were included. During a median follow-up of 695 (456-811) days, 54 patients (40.1 %) experienced an event. On Cox multivariate analysis, orosomucoid levels above the median (>497 mg/l) emerged as an independent predictor of prognosis (hazard ratio = 2.86, 95 % confidence interval 1.48-5.52 after adjusting for age, gender, ischaemic vs. non-ischaemic aetiology, LVEF, NT-proBNP and NYHA class).

conclusionOrosomucoid levels are an independent predictor of heart failure-related mortality and hospitalisations in patients with chronic heart failure.
