Association Between Changes in Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) Parameter and the Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Acute Heart Failure.
Observational study in Journal of Korean medical science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
backgroundVolume overload is associated not only with clinical manifestations but also with poor outcomes of heart failure (HF). However, there is an unmet need for effective methods for serial monitoring of volume status during HF hospitalization. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic implication of serial measurement of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in patients hospitalized with acute HF.
methodsThis study is a retrospective observational study and screened 310 patients hospitalized due to acute decompensated HF between November 2021 and September 2022. Among them, 116 patients with acute HF who underwent BIA at the time of admission and at discharge were evaluated. We investigated the correlation between change of BIA parameters and the primary composite outcome (in-hospital mortality or rehospitalization for worsening HF within one month).
resultsThe median (interquartile range) age was 77 years (67-82 years). The mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 40.7 ± 14.6% and 55.8% of HF patients have HF with reduced ejection fraction. The body water composition (intracellular water [ICW], extracellular water [ECW], and total body water [TBW]) showed a statistically significant correlation with body mass index and LV chamber sizes. Furthermore, the ratio of ECW to TBW (ECW/TBW), as an edema index showed a significant correlation with natriuretic peptide levels. Notably, the change of the edema index during hospitalization (ΔECW/TBW) showed a significant correlation with the primary outcome. The area under the curve of ΔECW/TBW for predicting primary outcome was 0.71 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.61-0.79;
conclusionBIA is a noninvasive and effective method to evaluate the volume status during the hospitalization of HF patients. The high and positive value of ΔECW/TBW during hospitalization was associated with poor outcomes in patients with HF.
