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

backgroundOver the past years, it has become clear that the microbial ecosystem in the gut has a profound capacity to interact with the host through the production of a wide range of bioactive metabolites. The microbially produced metabolite imidazole propionate (ImP) is clinically and mechanistically linked with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, but it is unclear how ImP is associated with heart failure.

objectivesThe authors aimed to explore whether ImP is associated with heart failure and mortality.

methodsImP serum measurements in 2 large and independent clinical cohorts of patients (European [n = 1,985] and North American [n = 2,155]) with a range of severity of cardiovascular disease including heart failure. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to delineate the impact of ImP on 5-year mortality in the North American cohort, independent of other covariates.

resultsImP is independently associated with reduced ejection fraction and heart failure in both cohorts, even after adjusting for traditional risk factors. Elevated ImP was a significant independent predictor of 5-year mortality (for the highest quartile, adjusted HR: 1.85 [95% CI: 1.20-2.88]; P < 0.01).

conclusionsThe gut microbial metabolite ImP is increased in individuals with heart failure and is a predictor of overall survival.
