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

Acute heart failure (AHF) syndromes are among the most frequent causes of hospitalization in the elderly and put a heavy financial burden on healthcare systems, mainly due to high early readmission rates. The understanding of AHF has evolved over the years from a significant hemodynamic failure to a multi-organ disease in the course of which peripheral mechanisms such as dysregulated cardiorenal axis or inflammation also play essential roles. A few available observational studies investigating iron deficiency (ID) in patients hospitalized for AHF indicate that this comorbidity is more prevalent than in chronic heart failure, and iron status presents some dynamics in these subjects. ID in AHF predicts increased mortality, greater risk for early readmission and is related to prolonged hospitalization. This paper reviews the results of the first multicenter, double-blind, randomized clinical trial on ferric carboxymaltose in patients who were stabilized after an episode of AHF who had concomitant ID (AFFIRM-AHF), and potential pathophysiological links between dysregulated iron status and AHF syndromes are discussed.
