Impact of early in-hospital initiation of sacubitril/valsartan on left ventricular reverse remodelling in acute heart failure.
Trial report in European heart journal. Cardiovascular pharmacotherapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimsThe effect of initiating sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) therapy during hospitalization for acute heart failure (AHF) on left ventricular (LV) remodelling remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the impact of Sac/Val on LV remodelling in patients in whom Sac/Val was initiated during AHF hospitalization. METHODS AND
resultsThis study was a sub-analysis of the Program of Angiotensin-Neprilysin Inhibition in Admitted Patients with Worsening Heart Failure (PREMIER) study, which investigated the impact of initiating Sac/Val during hospitalization for AHF on echocardiographic parameters over an 8-week period, in comparison with the standard renin-angiotensin system inhibitor therapy (control). Among the full analysis set of the PREMIER study, this analysis included 206 patients [mean age, 73 years; 64 females (31.1%)], who had available echocardiographic data. The Sac/Val group (n = 94) showed significantly improved LV function and morphological parameters at 8 weeks. Compared with the control group (n = 112), preload-dependent parameters improved significantly, including LV end-diastolic volume index [mean, -5.1 mL/m2; 95% confidence interval (CI), -10.2 to -0.04; P = 0.048] and tricuspid regurgitation peak velocity (mean, -0.17 m/s; 95% CI, -0.31 to -0.03; P = 0.016). In a subgroup analysis stratified by LV ejection fraction (LVEF), a reverse remodelling effect was primarily observed in patients with an LVEF < 40%.
conclusionEarly Sac/Val initiation after hospitalization for AHF may significantly improve LV function and morphology at 8 weeks, particularly in patients with an LVEF < 40%, supporting its role in LV reverse remodelling.
