Review in JACC. Basic to translational science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 513 papers, 14 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Recent clinical trials have shown that sodium glucose co-transport 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have dramatic beneficial cardiovascular outcomes. These include a reduced incidence of cardiovascular death and heart failure hospitalization in people with and without diabetes, and those with and without prevalent heart failure. The actual mechanism(s) responsible for these beneficial effects are not completely clear. Several potential theses have been proposed to explain the cardioprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibition, which include diuresis/natriuresis, blood pressure reduction, erythropoiesis, improved cardiac energy metabolism, inflammation reduction, inhibition of the sympathetic nervous system, prevention of adverse cardiac remodeling, prevention of ischemia/reperfusion injury, inhibition of the Na
