Real-world experience of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors in patients with heart failure and dialysis.

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
Introduction: Although angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) has shown promise in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), the treatment effect in HFrEF patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing dialysis is uncertain. This study aimed to examine the real-world effects of ARNI vs. angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEI/ARB) in this subpopulation. Methods: This multi-institutional, retrospective study identified 349 HFrEF patients with ESRD on dialysis, who initiated either ARNI or ACEI/ARB therapy. Efficacy outcomes included rates of hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) and mortality, as well as changes in echocardiographic parameters. Safety outcomes encompassed hypotension and hyperkalemia. Treatment effects were assessed using Cox proportional hazards models, with additional sensitivity analyses for robustness. Results: Out of 349 patients screened, 89 were included in the final analysis (42 in the ARNI group and 47 in the ACEI/ARB group). After 1 year of treatment, echocardiographic measures between the two groups were comparable. The primary composite rate of HHF or mortality was 20.6 events per 100 patient-years in the ARNI group and 26.1 in the ACEI/ARB group; the adjusted hazard ratio was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.28-3.43, Conclusion: ARNI has proven effective in treating HFrEF patients; however, significant benefits were not observed in these patients with ESRD undergoing dialysis compared with ACEI/ARB in this real-world cohort. Future research employing a more extended follow-up period, larger sample size, or randomized design is warranted to investigate the treatment effects in this subpopulation.
