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

aimsChronic kidney disease (CKD) increases the risk of morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Guidelines recommend assessing CKD using the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), as albuminuria is strongly associated with the risk of incident HF and outcomes in chronic HF; however, its prognostic role in acute HF (AHF) remains unclear. We evaluated if albuminuria was associated with adverse outcomes in individuals hospitalized with AHF in Renal Optimization Strategies Evaluation-Acute Heart Failure (ROSE-AHF).

methodsThere were 339 participants with baseline UACR, 248 with UACR at Day 7 and 237 with both measurements for assessing change in UACR. Associations of baseline, Day 7 and change in UACR with all-cause mortality at 6 months and the composite of first HF hospitalization or cardiovascular mortality at 2 months were assessed with Cox proportional hazards models. We assessed for effect modification by treatment arm and diabetes status.

resultsThe mean age was 70 years, 73.2% were male, 55.8% had diabetes mellitus, the mean estimated glomerular filtration rate was 45 mL/min/1.73 m

conclusionsAlbuminuria is largely not associated with the risk of death, cardiovascular death, or HF hospitalization in AHF, except admission UACR is associated with the risk of death in non-diabetics.
