Quantitative Blood Volume Analysis and Hemodynamic Measures of Vascular Compliance in Patients With Worsening Heart Failure.
Article in Journal of cardiac failure, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe role of blood volume (BV) expansion vs a change in vascular compliance in worsening heart failure (HF) remains under debate. We aimed to assess the relationship between BV and resting and stress hemodynamics in worsening HF and to further elucidate the significance of BV in cardiac decompensation. METHODS AND
resultsPatients with worsening HF underwent radiolabeled indicator-dilution BV analysis and cardiac catheterization. Intravascular volumes and resting/stress hemodynamics were recorded. Provocative stress maneuvers included change in systolic blood pressure (ΔSBP) from lying to standing and Valsalva and intracardiac pressure changes with leg raise. Correlation between BV and invasive hemodynamics were assessed by linear regression. Of 27 patients with worsening HF, patients' characteristics included mean age 61 ± 12 years, 70% male, 19% Black, and mean ejection fraction 29% ± 15%. Of the patients, 13 (48%) had hypervolemia as measured by total BV, which weakly correlated with ΔSBP by position (R
conclusionsIn patients with worsening HF, BV mildly correlated with intracardiac pressures at rest. Provocative maneuvers intended to test vascular compliance did not correlate with BV, indicating that compliance may serve as a stand-alone metric in HF.
