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
backgroundCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the main concerns of health care systems. The aim of this study was to investigate the most important prognostic factors of heart failure (HF) and their survival outcomes in patients in Birjand, East of Iran.
methodsA total of 194 systolic HF patients hospitalized in Birjand Valiasr hospital were followed up for 12 months in 2016, and those with reduced left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF < 50%) were included in this study. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard analysis were used to determine the association of each factor with events.
resultsThe mean age of patients was 68.23 ± 13.40 (27-95) years, and 57.2% (111 out of 194) were women. Mean survival time was 294.7 ± 9.924 days. Pervious history of myocardial infarction (MI) [2.141 (1.101-4.161)] increased the risk of cardiovascular hospitalization. Elevated blood levels of potassium [2.264 (1.438-3.564)] was found to be a risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Moreover, there was a reverse relationship between body height [0.942 (0.888-0.999)] and cardiovascular death. Patients with opium addiction [4.049 (1.310-12.516)] are at a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality. Lower levels of LDL-C [0.977 (0.960-0.996)] and living in rural areas [3.052 (1.039-8.964)] increased all-cause mortality levels. Lack of pervious history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) decreased cardiovascular hospitalization [0.265 (0.062-1.122)].
conclusionIn our study, serum potassium, LDL-C, and uric acid levels in patients with HF were identified as prognostic factors. The height of patients, which can be an indicator of the functional state of their respiratory system, and the history of COPD were also recognized as prognostic factors. Opium use and rural living were identified as social factors influencing patients' prognosis.
