Dosing Challenges and Benefits of Vericiguat in a Patient With Decompensated Heart Failure: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Vericiguat has emerged as a promising add-on therapy for decompensated heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients requiring hospitalization or IV diuretic administration. In the VICTORIA trial (Vericiguat Global Study in Subjects with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction), vericiguat was demonstrated to significantly reduce mortality and hospitalization rates. However, the effect of vericiguat on patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors remains uncertain. In this report, we present a complicated case of dilated heart failure receiving low doses of foundational therapy due to a patient's intolerance but still experiencing recurrent hospital readmissions. Following six months of low-dose vericiguat as an add-on therapy, the patient exhibited important improvements in various clinical parameters, including cardiac and renal function. Nonetheless, further investigation is crucial to substantiate the additional benefits of combination therapy. These findings provide further evidence for the potential benefits of vericiguat when treating HFrEF.
