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

Aim: To investigate the precipitating factors that contribute to hospitalization and mortality in postacute heart failure (AHF) hospitalization in the Middle-East region. Methods: We evaluated patient data from the Gulf AHF registry (Gulf CARE), a prospective multicenter study conducted on hospitalized AHF patients in 47 hospitals across seven Middle Eastern Gulf countries in 2012. We performed analysis by adjusting confounders to identify important precipitating factors contributing to rehospitalization and 90- to 120-day follow-up mortality. Results: The mean age of the cohort ( Conclusion: Precipitating factors such as ACS, nonadherence to diet, and medication were frequently identified as factors that influenced frequent hospitalization and mortality. Hence, early detection, management, and monitoring of these prognostic factors in-hospital and postdischarge should be prioritized in optimizing the management of HF in the Gulf region.
