Assessing congestion in heart failure: tools are already available, but integration is key.
Review in Heart failure reviews, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Congestion represents the principal clinical manifestation and hemodynamic hallmark of heart failure (HF), reflecting elevated cardiac filling pressures. It remains the leading cause of HF hospitalization and is consistently associated with adverse outcomes across all stages of the disease. Despite its major prognostic implications, the assessment of congestion remains suboptimal in both acute and chronic settings, with up to one-third of patients discharged while still fluid overloaded. This review, developed following the Critical Care Clinical Trialists (3CT) Workshop 2025, summarizes current and well-established approaches for evaluating congestion, and introduces new and emerging tools that may simplify its recognition and management while allowing for a more accurate and timely assessment. We further discuss how integrating clinical, imaging, hemodynamic, and patient-centered strategies may enable optimal congestion management and support a paradigm shift from reactive decongestion to proactive, individualized care.
