Efficacy of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Article in ACS pharmacology & translational science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 evidence for sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes or chronic heart failure was sufficient but lacking in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Our aim was to investigate the effects of SGLT2i on cardiovascular outcomes in ACS patients. Studies of SGLT2i selection in ACS patients were searched and pooled. Outcomes included all-cause death, adverse cardiovascular events, cardiac remodeling as measured by the left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD), cardiac function as assessed by the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and NT-proBNP, and glycemic control. Twenty-four studies with 12,413 patients were identified. Compared to the group without SGLT2i, SGLT2i showed benefits in reducing all-cause death (OR 0.72, 95% CI [0.61, 0.85]), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (OR 0.44, 95% CI [0.30, 0.64]), cardiovascular death (OR 0.66, 95% CI [0.54, 0.81]), heart failure (OR 0.52, 95% CI [0.44, 0.62]), myocardial infarction (OR 0.68, 95% CI [0.56, 0.83]), angina pectoris (OR 0.37, 95% CI [0.17, 0.78]), and stroke (OR 0.48, 95% CI [0.24, 0.96]). Results favored SGLT2i for LVEDD (MD -2.03, 95% CI [-3.29, -0.77]), LVEF (MD 3.22, 95% CI [1.71, 4.72]), and NT-proBNP (MD -171.53, 95% CI [-260.98, -82.08]). Thus, SGLT2i treatment reduces the risk of all-cause death and MACE and improves cardiac remodeling and function in ACS patients.
