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

Heart failure (HF) is associated to endothelial dysfunction that promotes the increase of arterial stiffness thus augmenting myocardial damage. Sacubitril/Valsartan is used in the treatment of HF reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and has been proven effective in reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression and all-cause mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Sacubitril/Valsartan on endothelial dysfunction, arterial stiffness, oxidative stress levels and platelets activation in patients with HFrEF, at baseline and after 6 months of treatment. We enrolled 100 Caucasian patients. Endothelial function was evaluated by the reactive hyperemia index (RHI) and arterial stiffness (AS) by the measurement of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation pressure (AP) and augmentation index (AI). At baseline, among enrolled outpatients, 43% showed a NYHA class II and 57% a NYHA class III. At 6 months, there was a significant improvement of several hemodynamic, clinical and metabolic parameters with a significant reduction in oxidative stress indices such as 8-isoprostane (
