Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: Rationale for and Practical Use of a Successful Therapy.
Review in Cardiac failure review, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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) with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction is a common disease with a poor prognosis and rising prevalence in the community. The current paradigm of treatment includes symptomatic therapy, such as diuretics, and risk factor control and treatment of comorbidities. According to European guidelines, there is no effective therapy for patients with HF with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%, while drugs normally used in HF with reduced LVEF might also be effective for patients with mildly reduced LVEF (40-50%), with a IIB class of recommendation. The recently published EMPEROR-Preserved trial has challenged current guidelines, demonstrating improved outcomes in patients with HF and LVEF >40% with the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2I) empagliflozin, compared with placebo. This result was consistent in patients with and without diabetes as well as in those with LVEF below and above 50%. The authors describe the rationale for this therapy, presenting the main results of the EMPEROR-Preserved trial, and provide some recommendations for the everyday clinical management of HF with preserved left ventricular ejection with an SGLT2I.
