Impaired Frontal Brain Activity in Patients With Heart Failure Assessed by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Background The prevalence of depression and/or anxiety disorders is reported to be higher in patients with heart failure (HF) than in the general population, and patients with HF also have coexisting cognitive problems. Recently, the development of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has enabled noninvasive measurements of regional cerebral blood volume and brain activity, in terms of cerebral oxyhemoglobin in the cerebral cortex, with a high time resolution. The aim of the current study was to determine the associations between frontal brain activity and depressive symptoms, anxiety status, and cognitive function in patients with HF. Methods and Results We measured and compared frontal brain activity determined by NIRS during a verbal fluency task in patients with HF (n=35) and control subjects (n=28). The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale for assessment of depressive symptoms, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for assessment of anxiety status, Mini-Mental State Examination for assessment of cognitive function, and NIRS were simultaneously conducted. NIRS showed that frontal brain activity was significantly lower in the HF group than in the control subjects (28.5 versus 88.0 mM·mm;
