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

Sacubitril with valsartan (sacubitril/valsartan) is a relatively novel compound that has become a milestone in the treatment of patients with chronic heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in the last decade. Contemporary data suggest that sacubitril/valsartan is associated with improved outcomes compared with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers, and has a greater beneficial effect on myocardial reverse remodelling. Additionally, two recent trials have shown that sacubitril/valsartan is well-tolerated even in the acute HF setting, thus enabling a continuum of use in the patient's journey with HFrEF. This article summarises available data on the effectiveness and tolerability of sacubitril/valsartan in patients with HFrEF, and provides the clinician with practical insights to facilitate the use of this drug in every setting, with an emphasis on acute HF, hypotension, electrolyte imbalance and renal insufficiency.
