Prognostic Value of Body Surface Area-Adjusted Oxygen Uptake Efficiency Slope in Heart Failure Patients.

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
Background: COVID-19 has been associated with a higher risk of developing heart failure (HF). Among the parameters derived from cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) has become one of the most important parameters for predicting the prognosis of HF patients. However, the clinical utilization of OUES is limited owing to its variation with patient height and weight. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of body surface area-adjusted OUES (OUES/BSA) in adults with HF. Methods: Thirty-six HF patients (mean age, 57 ± 12 years; 30 men) undergoing CPET between July 2019 and May 2020 who were followed up for 12 months were enrolled. The endpoints were major cardiovascular (CV) events, including hospitalization due to acute decompensated HF, left ventricular assist device implantation, heart transplantation, and cardiovascular-related death. We analyzed the correlations between clinical/CPET variables and major CV events. Results: Among the analyzed CPET variables, OUES/BSA had better correlation with maximal oxygen uptake (VO Conclusions: BSA-adjusted OUES is an effective independent predictor for prognosis in HF patients and can be an alternative to peak VO
