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

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction, with or without diabetes. A systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted, comparing SGLT2i to a placebo for HF patients. Relevant studies from PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched from inception to July 2021, without any language restrictions. The pooled effect was estimated using the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Depending on the heterogeneity test results, either random effects or fixed effects models were selected to estimate the pooled effects. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by gradually removing each study to evaluate the results' stability. A total of 5 RCT studies were included in the analysis. The fixed-effects model demonstrated that the patients in the SGLT2i group had a lower risk of hospitalization for HF/cardiovascular death (OR=0.72; 95% CI, 0.67-0.78), P<0.0001; I
