SGLT-2 Inhibitors in Heart Failure: A Review of Current Evidence.
Review in International journal of heart failure, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 101 papers, 9 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are the latest addition to guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction with recent trials suggesting a significant reduction in adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with HF with mildly reduced and preserved ejection fraction. SGLT-2 inhibitors have evolved as metabolic drugs due to their multi-system effects and are indicated for the management of HF across the ejection fraction spectrum, type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. There is ongoing research to explore the mechanistic effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors in HF and to evaluate their use in worsening HF and after myocardial infarction. This review focuses on the evidence for SGLT-2 inhibitors from type 2 diabetes cardiovascular outcome and primary HF trials and discusses ongoing research related to their use in cardiovascular disease.
