The utility of urine sodium-guided diuresis during acute decompensated heart failure.
Review in Heart failure reviews, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Diuresis to achieve decongestion is a central aim of therapy in patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). While multiple approaches have been tried to achieve adequate decongestion rapidly while minimizing adverse effects, no single diuretic strategy has shown superiority, and there is a paucity of data and guidelines to utilize in making these decisions. Observational cohort studies have shown associations between urine sodium excretion and outcomes after hospitalization for ADHF. Urine chemistries (urine sodium ± urine creatinine) may guide diuretic titration during ADHF, and multiple randomized clinical trials have been designed to compare a strategy of urine chemistry-guided diuresis to usual care. This review will summarize current literature for diuretic monitoring and titration strategies, outline evidence gaps, and describe the recently completed and ongoing clinical trials to address these gaps in patients with ADHF with a particular focus on the utility of urine sodium-guided strategies.
