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

We have shown that systemic and cardiac sympathetic activation is present in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients. Conversely, whereas systemic inflammatory activation was also detected in HFpEF, we did not detect local myocardial release of inflammatory cytokines. Activation of the sympathetic system correlated with both hemodynamic and demographic factors that characteristically cluster together in HFpEF. Together these data suggest that there may be a role for antiadrenergic therapies in certain HFpEF patients. The study does not implicate locally derived cytokines in the myocardial biology of HFpEF, although systemic sources may contribute to the global pathophysiology of HFpEF.
