Reverse Remodeling and Functional Improvement of Left Ventricle in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure Treated with Sacubitril/Valsartan: Comparison between Non-Ischemic and Ischemic Etiology.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Sacubitril/valsartan (SV) has been demonstrated to reduce cardiovascular mortality, hospitalization for heart failure and to induce reverse ventricular remodeling. The present study was designed to confirm the effects of SV in a selected population of patients with HFrEF and to evaluate the different responses between patients with an ischemic or a non-ischemic etiology. A total of 79 patients with indication of SV were recruited prospectively during a timelapse of 4 years. SV was overall associated to a reduction of end-diastolic and end-systolic volume, of NT-proBNP levels, furosemide dosage and NYHA functional class, together with an increase in EF. These changes were more evident in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, who showed a significant improvement in ventricular volumes, ejection fraction, TAPSE and blood levels of NT-proBNP. Kaplan-Meier curves confirmed a greater benefit in terms of ejection-fraction improvement in non-ischemic patients compared to the ischemic group. The results of the present study confirm the positive effect of SV on NYHA functional class, NT- proBNP, left ventricular volumes and EF in HFrEF patients, showing evidence of association of SV with ventricular remodeling in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy of non-ischemic etiology compared to the ischemic group.
