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

Heart failure (HF) with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) was recently recognised as a distinct clinical entity. Although guideline diagnostic criteria for HFmrEF are well defined, there is substantial variation in clinical characteristics, pathophysiology and prognosis of this group of patients. The heterogeneity in clinical presentations of HFmrEF arises from diverse patients' risk factors, coexisting comorbidities, which modify clinical signs and symptoms, and stage of the disease. On the other hand, HFmrEF shares common clinical features with other HF subgroups. However, the knowledge about the mechanisms and therapeutic approaches in HFmrEF is far from being completely understood. Therefore, HFmrEF represents one of the most intriguing areas of heart failure research. The aim of this review is therefore to highlight the diagnostic challenges in HFmrEF and to provide a constructive appraisal on the pathophysiology of HFmrEF, as well as to discuss the role of pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatment options in patients with HFmrEF.
