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

Heart failure is a debilitating clinical syndrome associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and frequent hospitalization, leading to increased healthcare budget utilization. Despite the exponential growth in the introduction of pharmacological agents and medical devices that improve survival, many heart failure patients, particularly those with a left ventricular ejection fraction less than 40%, still experience persistent clinical symptoms that lead to an overall decreased quality of life. Clinical risk prediction is one of the strategies that has been implemented for the selection of high-risk patients and for guiding therapy. However, most risk predictive models have not been well-integrated into the clinical setting. This is partly due to inherent limitations, such as creating risk predicting models using static clinical data that does not consider the dynamic nature of heart failure. Another limiting factor preventing clinicians from utilizing risk prediction models is the lack of insight into how predictive models are built. This review article focuses on describing how predictive models for risk-stratification of patients with heart failure are built.
