Firibastat Versus Ramipril After Acute Mechanical Reperfusion of Anterior Myocardial Infarction: A Phase 2 Study.
Trial report in American journal of cardiovascular drugs : drugs, devices, and other interventions, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03715998 (A Phase 2, Double-blind, Active-controlled, Dose-titrating Efficacy and Safety Study of Firibastat Compared to Ramipril Administered Orally, Twice Daily, Over 12 Weeks to Prevent Left Ventricular Dysfunction After Acute MI), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundPreclinical data suggest that central renin-angiotensin system blockade by the brain aminopeptidase-A inhibitor firibastat can improve left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after myocardial infarction (MI).
objectivesThis study aimed to compare the effect of firibastat versus ramipril on post-MI LVEF.
methodsIn this phase 2, randomized, double-blind trial, patients selected within 24 h of first acute anterior MI treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to firibastat 100 mg, firibastat 500 mg or ramipril 5 mg, each twice daily for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in LVEF on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) from baseline to day 84 in the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population (at least one dose received and one follow-up cMRI available) for each treatment group.
resultsFrom June 4, 2019 to April 12, 2021, 294 patients were randomized and 229 were evaluable for the mITT analysis. After 12 weeks, mean ± standard deviation (SD) percent change in LVEF was 5.6 ± 1.2 with firibastat 100 mg, 5.3 ± 1.1 with firibastat 500 mg and 5.7 ± 1.1 with ramipril. The absolute ± SE adjusted difference in LVEF change from baseline between firibastat 500 mg and ramipril was - 0.36 ± 1.32% (p = 0.79). Occurrence of treatment-related adverse events was similar in the three groups.
conclusionsFiribastat was not superior to ramipril for prevention of left ventricular dysfunction after first acute anterior MI, and their safety profiles were similar. REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03715998.
