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

Congestion in patients with heart failure (HF) predicts adverse outcomes and is a leading cause of hospitalisation. Understanding congestion mechanisms helps in HF management and underscores the importance of tailored therapies to treat vascular and tissue congestion, improving patient outcomes. In this setting, several tools are available to detect congestion. Biomarker measurement is a simple, valid and affordable method to evaluate congestion in patients with HF. Natriuretic peptides are the most widely available tool in acute and chronic HF, helping diagnosis, risk stratification and management. Novel biomarkers can potentially become reliable allies in diagnosing and monitoring patients with HF. This review aims to assess the current scientific literature on biomarkers for managing HF, evaluate their clinical utility and explore future perspectives in this field.
