Prognostic factors in heart failure patients with cardiac cachexia.
Article in Journal of geriatric cardiology : JGC, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
objectiveTo clarify whether cardiac cachexia (CC) alters the prognostic impact of other general risk factors in patients with heart failure (HF).
methodsThis was an observational study. CC was defined as the combination of a body mass index of < 20 kg/m
resultsThe presence of CC showed significant interactions with other risk factors including cancer, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and sodium in predicting these endpoints. Multiple Cox proportional analysis revealed that use of â blockers [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.900, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.045-3.455,
conclusionsIn predicting prognosis, CC showed interactions with several risk factors. Renal function, age, and hemoglobin were pivotal markers in HF patients with CC.
