Early Versus Delayed Diuretic Administration and Urine-Guided Strategies in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: A Systematic Review of Clinical Outcomes.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This systematic review explores the impact of diuretic timing and strategy on outcomes in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). A total of seven studies were included, comprising randomized controlled trials (RCTs), pre-specified sub-analyses, and observational data. Early administration of intravenous loop diuretics, particularly within the first 60 to 90 minutes of hospital arrival, was generally associated with improved short-term outcomes, including reduced in-hospital and 30-day mortality. Furthermore, guided diuretic strategies using urine sodium or urinary biomarkers showed promise in enhancing decongestion efficiency and predicting therapeutic response, although long-term benefits remain uncertain. Despite some heterogeneity in study design, timing definitions, and outcome measures, this review underscores the clinical significance of prompt and tailored diuretic therapy. These findings highlight the need for timely intervention and more personalized management strategies in ADHF, while also identifying gaps for future large-scale trials.
