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
backgroundThis study aimed to investigate the correlation between the ratio of diastolic to systolic durations (D/S) and echocardiographic parameters of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and evaluate whether the D/S can be used as a supplementary biomarker for the classification of heart failure (HF) phenotypes.
methodsIn total, 122 CHF patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <40%, 40%≤LVEF<50%, or ≥50% were categorized as having HF with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (N=32), HF with a mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) (N=21) or HF with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) (N=69), respectively. All patients underwent echocardiography for assessment of nineteen structural and functional echocardiographic parameters and digital phonocardiography for the measurement of D/S. Spearman correlation was used to analyse the associations between the D/S and echocardiographic parameters. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations between the D/S and HF phenotypes, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was employed to evaluate the predictive value of the D/S in the classification of HF phenotypes.
resultsThe D/S values of patients with HFrEF, HFmrEF and HFpEF were 1.32±0.06, 1.44±0.11 and 1.54±0.08, respectively, which were significantly different (All P<0.05). A close correlation between the D/S and LVEF was found (r=0.777, P<0.001). The multivariate analysis indicated that the D/S was an independent risk factor for CHF phenotypes (OR=4.927, 95% CI 2.532-9.587; P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve for distinguishing between HFmrEF and HFpEF using the D/S was 0.764 (95% CI 0.707-0.845; P < 0.001) and that for distinguishing between HFmrEF and HFrEF using the D/S was 0.821 (95% CI 0.755-0.882; P < 0.001).
conclusionThe D/S was significantly associated with LVEF, and as LVEF decreased, the D/S tended to decrease, which could also serve as a noninvasive supplementary indicator for detecting systolic and diastolic dysfunction.
