Role of Imaging and Biomarkers in Identifying, Monitoring, and Promoting Myocardial Recovery.
Review in Methodist DeBakey cardiovascular journal, 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
Reverse remodeling, the overarching concept behind myocardial recovery, describes the process in which the maladaptive cardiac structural and functional alterations are reversed by removing the underlying etiology or by therapy. This review addresses different imaging modalities and biomarkers as possible predictors for reverse remodeling in patients with chronic heart failure. Although echocardiography remains the imaging modality of choice in daily practice, the presence and amount of fibrosis on cardiac magnetic resonance is a better predictor and inversely correlated with the likelihood for reverse remodeling. A decrease in NT-proBNP levels and serum soluble ST3 during follow-up is associated with better clinical and structural outcomes. The role of troponins and galectine-3 is less clear. There is a promising role for microRNAs in the future, although more research is necessary. Accurate predictors of reverse remodeling could help identify patients with an increased likelihood for reverse remodeling and, in turn, improve patient-tailored medicine.
