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

Inflammation plays a central role in the development of heart failure, especially in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Furthermore, the inflammatory response enables the induction of regenerative processes following acute myocardial injury. Recent studies in humans and animals have greatly advanced our understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind these adaptations. Importantly, inflammation can have both beneficial and detrimental effects, dependent on its extent, localization, and duration. Therefore, modulation of cardiac inflammation has been suggested as an attractive target for the treatment of heart failure, which has been investigated in numerous clinical trials. This review discusses key inflammatory mechanisms contributing to the pathogenesis of heart failure and their potential impact as therapeutic targets.
