[Cost effectiveness of bisoprolol in heart failure. Economic evaluation of the Cardiac Insufficiency Bisoprolol Study (CIBIS) for Germany].
Trial report in Medizinische Klinik (Munich, Germany : 1983), 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe Cardiac Insufficiency Bisoprolol Study (CIBIS) demonstrates that, for patients with heart failure of different etiologies, the administration of the beta(1)-adrenoceptor blocker bisoprolol adjuvant to the standard therapy leads to a significant avoidance of hospital admissions. PHARMACOECONOMIC EVALUATION: The results of the CIBIS were evaluated pharmacoeconomically for the Federal Republic of Germany, and were restricted to direct costs only. The costs of bisoprolol medication and in-patient treatment of heart failure were considered, the latter forming the major part of costs incurred.
conclusionAdjunctive therapy with bisoprolol is not only clinically beneficial to the patient with heart failure, but also economically advantageous.
