Gaps in Heart Failure Care: The Need for Effective Communication and Health Literacy-concordant Patient Education.
Review in US cardiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Heart failure (HF) care has increased in complexity over the past decade, with a higher number of interventions and medications offered to patients as part of routine HF care. Studies have consistently shown poor patient understanding of their HF diagnosis and treatment plans, impacting their overall outcomes. Effective communication and literacy-concordant patient education are two key players in comprehensive disease understanding. However, wide variability in HF patient education and the usage of literacy-discordant material have resulted in ineffective patient education, further contributing to fragmented patient understanding of their HF diagnosis. Innovative interventions targeting communication strategies and education delivery methods could significantly alter care delivery and improve multiple domains in HF care.
