Implementing community-based heart failure screening in primary care settings: a population-based pilot study in Shanghai, China.
Observational study in BMC primary care, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06673615 (A Community-based Cohort Study on Early Screening of Heart Failure in Elderly Population in Shanghai), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundWhile risk-stratified heart failure screening demonstrates clinical value in enabling early intervention, current implementation remains limited globally. This study aims to develop and validate a multi-stakeholder collaborative screening framework based on primary healthcare system.
methodsWe conducted the Pudong Heart Failure Screening Project (PHSP) in the medical consortium in Shanghai. The PHSP was delivered via five phases: (a) investigation, (b) screening, (c) individual invitation, (d) consultation in primary health care and (e) management in secondary health care. Data were collected by electronic data capture (EDC) system, office administrators and GPs. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between the outcomes and factors.
resultsA total of 8022 individuals took part in the PHSP and 2473 participants (30.83%) were initially defined positive in the screening. Among the 2473 positive participants, 1553 responded to the invitation call, and 664 individuals accepted the invitation to visit the Cardiologist-driven GP joint clinic. Notably, house price was identified as a significant factor influencing their decision to accept the invitation (OR = 7.598, 95%CI (1.717-33.621), p < 0.05). Finally, a total of 563 patients visited the clinic and 307 positive individuals visited the secondary care institution. The use of an AI-assisted referral system significantly increased attendance at secondary care (OR = 11.4). The cost of the screening program was 12.25 US per individual screened and 39.73 US per positive individual identified.
conclusionsPHSP identified older adults at early risk of heart failure through low-cost community screening. The collaboration of multiple parties ensured the full implementation of the screening project and it was a typical practice case in the realm of implementation science worthy of promotion in more regions.
