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 with ischemic cause is associated with substantial cardiovascular mortality. SGLT2 (sodium glucose cotransporter 2) inhibitors demonstrate cardiovascular benefits, but interindividual response variability remains poorly understood. We investigated the relationship between baseline ketone body metabolism and SGLT2 inhibitor response in heart failure with ischemic cause across diverse genetic backgrounds.

methodsWe analyzed metabolomics data from 3847 patients with heart failure with ischemic cause across 23 countries (2020-2024). Ketone body metabolites (β-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate, acetone) were quantified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. SGLT2 inhibitor response was assessed via a composite end point including cardiovascular mortality, heart failure hospitalization, and kidney function decline. Analyses included multivariate Cox regression, machine learning (Random Forest, Extreme Gradient Boosting), and Mendelian randomization, integrating Global Burden of Disease 2021 data across 5 genetic ancestry groups.

resultsBaseline β-hydroxybutyrate inversely correlated with SGLT2 inhibitor outcomes (r=-0.67,

conclusionsBaseline ketone body metabolism is strongly associated with SGLT2 inhibitor outcomes in heart failure with ischemic cause, with marked interancestry variability. Metabolomic profiling may inform precision medicine approaches to therapeutic decision-making, pending prospective validation.
