The Effectiveness of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitors on Cardiovascular Outcomes and All-Cause Mortality in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the impact of early sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) initiation on long-term cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). For this study, we adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guideline. Two researchers independently performed a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library, spanning from the inception of each database to February 24, 2023, without language limitations. The outcomes examined in this meta-analysis comprised major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (as defined by individual studies), all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic), recurrent ACS, and hospitalization due to heart failure (HF). A total of nine studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled analysis of nine studies revealed a significant reduction in the risk of MACE, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and cardiovascular-related hospitalizations among patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) compared to those in the control group. Additionally, there was a trend toward a lower risk of recurrent ACS in the SGLT2i group, although this difference did not reach statistical significance. The findings of this study suggest a promising therapeutic effect of SGLT2 inhibitors in this population. Further research, particularly focusing on myocardial infarction (MI) patients, is warranted to validate these results and potentially revolutionize ACS management.
