Effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on nutritional status in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 2022. 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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on nutritional status in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
methodsThe sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor treatment was initiated in 153 patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction who were symptomatic despite optimal medical treatment and were followed up for 6 months. The Minnesota Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire scores, New York Heart Association functional class, NT-pro-BNP levels, and nutritional index scores of the patients were evaluated before sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor treatment and at the 6-month follow-up. The nutritional status of the patients was evaluated with the COntrolling NUTritional Status score, Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index, and Prognostic Nutritional Index.
resultsAfter sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor treatment, significant changes were observed in the mean scores of the three different nutritional indexes: COntrolling NUTritional Status (before: 2.76±2.43 vs. after: 1.12±1.23, p<0.001), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (before: 98.2±9.63 vs. after: 104.4±5.83, p<0.001), and Prognostic Nutritional Index (before: 37.9±4.63 vs. after: 42.9±3.83, p<0.001) scores. A significant decrease in the number of patients with malnutrition was observed according to the COntrolling NUTritional Status (before: 46.4% vs. after: 9.7%, p<0.001), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (before: 41.8% vs. after: 18.9%, p=0.006), and Prognostic Nutritional Index (before: 36.6% vs. after: 13.7%, p=0.007) scores. A significant functional improvement was observed in patients after sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 treatment: Minnesota Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire scores (before: 39.2±7.2 vs. after: 20.4±7.4, p<0.001), NT-pro-BNP levels (before: 2989±681 vs. after: 1236±760, p<0.001), and New York Heart Association class (before: class II-III: 95.5%; class IV: 4.5% vs. after: class II-III: 78%; class IV: 0%, p<0.001).
conclusionIn patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction who are symptomatic despite optimal medical treatment, the addition of an sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor to treatment can significantly improve both the nutritional and functional statuses.
