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

backgroundHeart failure (HF) is a frequent and clinically relevant comorbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Both conditions are closely linked through hemodynamic, neurohormonal, and inflammatory mechanisms, resulting in excess morbidity and mortality. However, nationwide epidemiological data for hospitalized patients with CKD in Germany are scarce. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and outcomes of HF in CKD using a large real-world dataset. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe conducted a retrospective, observational study analyzing administrative data from 87 German hospitals between 2016 and 2022 (

resultsCKD patients with HF were older (76.5 ± 10.8 vs. 71.5 ± 14.3 years, DISCUSSION: In this large, multicenter, real-world cohort, HF was highly prevalent in CKD and associated with substantially increased morbidity and mortality. These findings highlight the considerable public health burden of HF in CKD and the urgent need for targeted prevention and management strategies.
