Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction and Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction - implications for Chronic Inflammatory Mechanisms.
Review in Current cardiology reviews, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD) is now considered one of the key underlying pathologies responsible for the development of both acute and chronic cardiac complications. It has been long recognized that CMD contributes to coronary no-reflow, which occurs as an acute complication during percutaneous coronary interventions. More recently, CMD was proposed to play a mechanistic role in the development of left ventricle diastolic dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Emerging evidence indicates that a chronic low-grade pro-inflammatory activation predisposes patients to both acute and chronic cardiovascular complications raising the possibility that pro-inflammatory mediators serve as a mechanistic link in HFpEF. Few recent studies have evaluated the role of the hyaluronan-CD44 axis in inflammation-related cardiovascular pathologies, thus warranting further investigations. This review article summarizes current evidence for the role of CMD in the development of HFpEF, focusing on molecular mediators of chronic proinflammatory as well as oxidative stress mechanisms and possible therapeutic approaches to consider for treatment and prevention.
