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

backgroundHeart failure exhibits sex-based differences in prevalence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes. However, these differences may have an interaction with age. This study investigates these disparities in Asian patients with acute heart failure according to age. METHODS AND

resultsWe pooled data from the KorHF (Korea Heart Failure) and the KorAHF (Korean Acute Heart Failure) registries including 3200 patients between 2005 and 2009 and 5625 patients between 2011 and 2014, respectively, hospitalized for acute heart failure in Korea. Patients were categorized by their age into 2 groups: those with age ≥70 years and those with age <70 years. The primary endpoint was in-hospital and postdischarge outcomes according to sex, stratified by age. Of 8825 patients, 45.7% had an age <70 years, and 54.3% had an age ≥70 years. Women were older on average in both groups. Differences in baseline characteristics were more apparent in the older group, with women having a higher prevalence of hypertension and valvular heart disease, whereas more men had chronic kidney disease, previous myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and strokes. Both in-hospital and postdischarge mortalities showed differences only in the older group, with men dying more (5.08% versus 7.41%,

conclusionsIn patients hospitalized with acute heart failure, male sex is an independent predictor of mortality in older patients but not younger patients.
