Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Despite significant advances in the management of heart failure (HF), further improvement in the outcome of this chronic and progressive disease is still considered a major unmet need. Recurrent hospitalizations due to decompensated HF frequently occur, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality rates. Past attempts at early detection of clinical deterioration were mainly based on monitoring of signs and symptoms of HF exacerbation, which have mostly given disappointing results. Extensive research of the pathophysiology of HF decompensation has indicated that hemodynamic alterations start days prior to clinical manifestation. Novel technologies aim to monitor these minute hemodynamic changes, allowing time for therapeutic interventions to prevent hemodynamic derangement and HF exacerbation. The latest noticeable advancements include assessment of lung fluid volume, wearable devices with integrated sensors, and microelectromechanical systems-based implantable devices for continuous measurement of cardiac filling pressures. This manuscript will review the rationale for monitoring HF patients and discuss previous and ongoing attempts to develop clinically meaningful monitoring devices to improve daily HF health care, with particular emphasis on the recent advances and clinical trials relevant to this evolving field.
