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

purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to describe the evidence behind various blood and imaging-based biomarkers that can improve the identification of congestion when not clearly evident on routine examination. RECENT

findingsThe natriuretic peptides (NPs) BNP and NT-proBNP have been shown to closely correlate with intra-cardiac filling pressures, both at baseline and when trended following improvement in congestion. Additionally, NPs rise well before clinical congestion is apparent so can be used as a tool to help identify subclinical HF decompensation. Additional serum-based biomarkers including MR-proANP and CA-125 can be helpful in assisting with diagnostic certainty when BNP or NT-proBNP are in the "grey zone" or when factors are present which may confound NP levels. Additionally, the emerging use of ultrasound techniques may enhance our ability to fine-tune the assessment and treatment of congestion. Biomarkers, including the blood-based natriuretic peptides and markers on bedside point of care ultrasound, can be used as non-invasive indices of hemodynamic congestion. These biomarkers are particularly valuable to incorporate when the degree of a patient's congestion is not apparent on clinical exam, and they can provide important prognostic information and help guide clinical management.
