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

INTRODUCTION AND

objectivesHeart failure (HF) patients are at risk of developing thrombosis due to low cardiac output, systemic inflammatory response, and endothelial dysfunction. Thromboembolic complications in HF patients most commonly lead to fatal consequences.

methodsThe protocol for this study was registered in PROSPERO with identification number CRD42024532861. We performed random-effects meta-analyses on extracted data of hazard ratios (HR) and odds ratios (OR) using Review Manager 5.4.

resultsTwenty-two studies with a total population of 14,773 patients were included. INR was associated with risk of mortality (per 0.1 increase, univariate HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.08-1.28,

conclusionLow-certainty evidence weakly supports the potential of D-dimer as an independent prognostic marker in predicting HF mortality.
