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

Objective was to examine the temporal trends in readmission and mortality of heart failure (HF) patients with history of hypertension. This study includes 51 141 patients with history of hypertension who were discharged with a first diagnosis of HF between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2014. Data were obtained from the Myocardial Infarction Data Acquisition System (MIDAS), a statewide database of all hospitalizations for cardiovascular (CV) disease in New Jersey. The temporal trends of mortality, rates of HF-specific readmission, and all-cause readmissions up to 1 year after discharge were examined using multivariable logistic regression. The difference in all-cause mortality at 3 years between patients who were readmitted compared to those who were not readmitted at 1 year was examined. The number of patients with history of hypertension and HF remained unchanged during the study period. Male gender, black race, comorbidities, and admission to non-teaching hospitals were predictors of HF readmission and CV mortality (P < .05 for all). Readmission rate for any cause increased during the study period (P < .001) while rates of HF readmissions and mortality remained relatively unchanged. Patients that had been readmitted within a year exhibited a significantly higher 3-year mortality (P < .001). CV mortality among HF patients with history of hypertension did not change significantly between 2000 and 2014, while the rates of all-cause readmission increased. Patients who were readmitted had higher 3-year mortality (P < .001) than those who were not.
