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

We report a retrospective analysis of a nationwide health database to study the association between sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2I) use and the incidence of adverse clinical outcomes among heart failure (HF) patients with and without atrial fibrillation (AF) stratified by CHA2DS2-VASc score. The outcome of this study was on the development of adverse events, including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic stroke, cardiovascular (CV) death, and all-cause mortality. By dividing the number of adverse events by the total person-years, the incidence rate was calculated. The hazard ratio (HR) was estimated by the Cox proportional hazard model. A total of 95% confidence interval (CI) was also presented to show the risk of adverse events for HF patients with and without AF taking SGLT2I. SGLT2I users had a lower risk of AMI (adjusted HR = 0.83; 95% CI = 0.74, 0.94), CV death (adjusted HR = 0.47; 95% CI = 0.42, 0.51), and all-cause death (adjusted HR = 0.39; 95% CI = 0.37, 0.41). Considering HF patients without AF and SGLT2I as the reference group, HF patients without AF but with SGLT2I had a reduced risk of adverse outcomes of 0.48 (95% CI = 0.45, 0.50), and HF patients with AF and SGLT2I had the decreased hazard ratio of 0.55 (95% CI = 0.50, 0.61). The adjusted HR of adverse outcomes for HF patients with CHA2DS2-VASc score less than 2 and SGLT2I without and with AF relative to HF patients without AF nor SGLT2I were 0.53 (95% CI = 0.41, 0.67) and 0.24 (95% CI = 0.12, 0.47), respectively. Compared to HF patients with no history of AF and SGLT2I, if patients additionally with SGLT2I and CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2, the risk of the adverse outcomes was reduced with adjusted HR of 0.48 (95% CI = 0.45, 0.50); if patients additionally with AF and CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2, the risk of the adverse outcomes was decreased with adjusted HR of 0.88 (95% CI = 0.80, 0.97); if patients additionally with AF, SGLT2I, and CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2, the risk of the adverse outcomes was diminished with adjusted HR of 0.52 (95% CI = 0.47, 0.58). We concluded that SGLT2I has a protective effect in HF patients, and the risk reduction is greater with a score of < 2 and without AF.
