Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction and 30-Day Readmission.
Article in Clinical medicine & research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveSeveral studies identify heart failure (HF) as a potential risk for hospital readmission; however, studies on predictability of heart failure readmission is limited. The objective of this work was to investigate whether a specific type of heart failure (HFpEF or HFrEF) has a higher association to the rate of 30-day hospital readmission and compare their predictability with the two risk scores: HOSPITAL score and LACE index.
designRetrospective study from single academic center.
methodsSample size included adult patients from an academic hospital in a two-year period (2015 - 2017). Exclusion criteria included death, transfer to another hospital, and unadvised leave from hospital. Baseline characteristics, diagnosis-related group, and ICD diagnosis codes were obtained. Variables affecting HOSPITAL score and LACE index and types of heart failure present were also extracted. Qualitative variables were compared using Pearson chi
resultsThe sample size of adult patients in the study period was 1,916. All eligible cohort of patients who were readmitted were analyzed. Cumulative score indicators of HOSPITAL Score, LACE index (including the Charlson Comorbidity Index) predicted 30-day readmissions with
conclusionsOur data from an academic tertiary care center supports HFpEF as an independent risk factor for readmission. Multidisciplinary management of HFpEF may be an important target for interventions to reduce hospital readmissions.
