Potential favorable action of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on sudden cardiac death: a brief overview.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
The primary pharmacological action of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors is to inhibit the reabsorption of glucose and sodium ions from the proximal tubules of the kidney and to promote urinary glucose excretion. Notably, several clinical trials have recently demonstrated potent protective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with heart failure (HF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), regardless of the presence or absence of diabetes. However, the impact of SGLT2 inhibitors on sudden cardiac death (SCD) or fatal ventricular arrhythmias (VAs), the pathophysiology of which is partly similar to that of HF and CKD, remains undetermined. The cardiorenal protective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors have been reported to include hemodynamic improvement, reverse remodeling of the failing heart, amelioration of sympathetic hyperactivity, correction of anemia and impaired iron metabolism, antioxidative effects, correction of serum electrolyte abnormalities, and antifibrotic effects, which may lead to prevent SCD and/or VAs. Recently, as possible direct cardiac effects of SGLT2 inhibitors, not only inhibition of Na
