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

The Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure program was developed in 2005 with the goal of bringing evidence-based guidelines in heart failure management into widespread clinical practice. The program includes workshops, webinars, tool kits, chart abstraction, performance benchmarking, and achievement awards to drive quality improvement at participating hospitals. Two decades after its inception, the program has grown to include over 600 participating institutions across the United States. Linking registry data to Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services claims has also allowed for the evaluation of longitudinal outcomes. Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure has helped improve the quality of care for patients and has contributed substantially to the understanding of clinical science and optimal management of heart failure. This narrative review provides an overview of the indelible impact of the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure program on quality heart failure care over the past 20 years and highlights future challenges and directions.
