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 complex clinical syndrome with a high morbidity and mortality rate. Despite advancements in treatment, the recurrence of HF remains a significant challenge, often leading to deteriorating health conditions and increased pressure on the health care system. Early detection of recurrence is pivotal in mitigating and managing the adverse outcomes associated with HF.

objectiveThe primary objective of this study is to collect data to facilitate the identification of digital biomarkers that may indicate deterioration of the heart and, ultimately, develop algorithms that can predict HF.

methodsThis prospective cohort study is conducted in Copenhagen, Denmark, and will recruit individuals diagnosed with decompensated HF. Participants will be followed for a period of 1 year, during which they will undergo a quarterly assessment period every 3 months. Each quarterly assessment period spans 7 days and involves continuous monitoring using an ambulatory electrocardiogram sensor. Throughout each quarterly assessment period, participants will also complete daily assessments and questionnaires. All data will be collected using a dedicated mobile app installed on the participants' personal smartphones and securely stored in a cloud-based system.

resultsThis study is part of the Cardio-Share Model for Cross-Sectoral Ambulatory Treatment of Congestive Heart Disease Based on Personal Health Technology project. Technical and regulatory preparation started in 2023. Recruitment for this study started in January 2025 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2026. The dataset will be anonymized and published for further research.

conclusionsThis study aims to provide a comprehensive longitudinal open-source dataset of HF recorded in real-world ambulatory conditions that enhances our understanding of HF signs and symptoms. This dataset will provide an important source for detailed analysis and understanding of HF based on ambulatory and contextual physiological data. Such insight has the potential to enhance the clinical management of individuals with HF and enable them to handle their condition at home.
