Efficacy of Sacubitril/Valsartan Among Heart Failure Individuals With Implanted Cardiac Defibrillators: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
Introduction: Antiarrhythmic effects of sacubitril/valsartan in heart failure (HF) have been previously reported; however, its impact among individuals with ventricular arrhythmias with cardiac defibrillators remains unclear. Therefore, we performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to address this lack of evidence. Method: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted from inception until February 26, 2025. Binary and continuous variables were analyzed by odds ratio (OR) and mean differences, respectively. All analyses were performed using a random-effects model by RevMan. Results: Four paired observational cohort studies, including 397 patients with HF and implanted cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) were enrolled. This study showed that sacubitril/valsartan could significantly reduce the incidence of ICD shocks (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.19 to 0.60; Conclusion: Sacubitril/valsartan may have a potential benefit among HF patients with cardiac defibrillators; future investigations are warranted to confirm the antiarrhythmic effects of sacubitril/valsartan in this setting.
