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

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) afflicts over half of all patients with heart failure and is a debilitating and fatal syndrome affecting postmenopausal women more than any other demographic. This bias toward older females calls into question the significance of menopause in the development of HFpEF, but this question has not been probed in detail. In this study, we report the first investigation into the impact of ovary-intact menopause in the context of HFpEF. To replicate the human condition as faithfully as possible, vinylcyclohexene dioxide (VCD) was used to accelerate ovarian failure (AOF) in female mice while leaving the ovaries intact. HFpEF was established with a mouse model that involves two stressors typical in humans: a high-fat diet and hypertension induced from the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor
