Prognostic value of platelet volume indices in heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in American journal of blood research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesHeart failure (HF) is a complex condition with a substantial global prevalence and clinical burden. Prognostic biomarkers are essential for effective management. This study systematically reviews and synthesizes the prognostic value of mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) in HF patients.
methodsA comprehensive search was conducted in Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase databases. Eligible studies were identified, screened, and selected according to pre-defined criteria. Data extraction and quality assessment were performed by independent reviewers. Meta-analyses were conducted using random-effects models, and heterogeneity was assessed using
resultsFrom 12471 records, 21 studies were included. MPV showed significant predictive value, with pooled hazard ratios (HR) of 1.49 (0.67-3.32) and odds ratios (OR) of 1.71 (1.5-1.91) for mortality and morbidity. The pooled mean difference in MPV values between the affected and unaffected subjects was 0.66 (0.21-1.1, P=0.008). MPV was positively correlated with NT-proBNP levels (pooled coefficient: 0.13, P=0.028). The pooled area under the curve for MPV in prognosticating adverse outcomes was 0.75 (0.69-0.82). However, PDW did not show significant prognostic value (HR: 1.56, OR: 1.11).
conclusionsMPV is a useful prognostic marker in HF, associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Prognostic significance of PDW remains unclear, requiring additional research. The application of MPV can improve risk stratification and management of HF, but further research with larger populations and diverse settings is essential to confirm these findings and establish clinical reference ranges.
