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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesHeart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) poses a significant burden on healthcare systems worldwide. We evaluated the real-world cost-effectiveness of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) compared with traditional renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade in patients with HFrEF in the Korean setting.

methodsA partitioned survival model was developed based on the PARADE-HF study, which evaluated the effectiveness of ARNI in Korean HFrEF patients using National Health Insurance claims data. The model estimated medical costs, hospitalizations, life-years, and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) over a lifetime. Cost-effectiveness was assessed using the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER).

resultsThe use of ARNI resulted in additional 0.54 life-years, 0.25 QALYs gained, fewer hospitalizations (25.91 vs. 26.40) per 1,000 person-years, and an added cost of $2,880 per patient. The ICER was $11,365/QALY for all patients and $9,421/QALY for elderly patients (≥75 years). At a $20,000/QALY threshold of the willingness to pay, cost-effectiveness probabilities were 68% in all patients and 88% in elderly patients.

conclusionsIn the real world, ARNI demonstrated superior cost-effectiveness compared with traditional RAS blockade in patients with HFrEF, with particularly pronounced benefits in elderly patients aged ≥75 years. The favorable cost-effectiveness profile, combined with significant reductions in mortality and hospitalization, supports the broader adoption of ARNI in clinical practice, especially for elderly patients despite concerns about tolerability in this population.
