N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide improves the predictive value of CHA
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundIt is important to identify patients with co-morbid acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and atrial fibrillation (AF) at high risk and adopt proper management strategies to improve their prognosis. HYPOTHESIS: The addition of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) could improve predictive value for long-term cardiovascular events beyond the CHA
methodsA total of 1223 patients with baseline NT-proBNP between January 2016 and December 2019 were included in the study. The primary endpoint was all-cause death at 12 months. The secondary outcomes included 12-month cardiac death and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE), defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke.
resultsA higher serum of NT-proBNP levels was strongly associated with increased risks of all-cause death (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-1.07), cardiac death (adjusted HR: 1.05, 95% CI, 1.03-1.07), and MACCE (adjusted HR: 1.04, 95% CI, 1.02-1.06). The prognostic accuracy of the CHA
conclusionsIn patients with ACS and AF, NT-proBNP is a potential biomarker to enhance risk discrimination for all-cause death, cardiac death, and MACCE in combination with the CHA
