Relationship Between Cardiac Structure and Function With Renal Function Trajectory and Outcomes in Patients With Heart Failure: Insights From the PARAGON-HF Trial.
Trial report in Circulation. Heart failure, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01920711 (A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Active-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of LCZ696 Compared to Valsartan, on Morbidity and Mortality in Heart Failure Patients), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundRenal dysfunction is common and associated with a poor prognosis in patients with heart failure. However, the association of cardiac structure and function with decline in kidney function in this population is unknown. We aimed to assess the association between individual measures of cardiac structure and function with changes in renal function and renal outcomes in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
methodsPatients enrolled in the PARAGON-HF (Prospective Comparison of Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor With Angiotensin-Receptor Blockers Global Outcomes in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction) echocardiographic substudy were included. The association between each echocardiographic parameter (expressed in standardized units) and changes over time in estimated glomerular filtration rate was calculated with repeated-measures mixed-effect models. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify individual cardiac parameters associated with the composite renal outcome (≥50% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate relative to baseline, development of end-stage renal disease, or death attributable to renal causes), after adjusting for covariates.
resultsAmong 1097 patients (mean age 74±8 years and 53% women), over a median follow-up of 2.9 years, 28 composite renal events (0.9 per 100 person-years) occurred. Higher left ventricular (LV) mass index and higher E/average e' ratio were associated with significantly more profound annual decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (for both, -0.4 [95% CI, -0.7 to -0.1] mL/min/1.73 m
conclusionsIn the PARAGON-HF echocardiographic substudy, higher LV mass and filling pressures were independently associated with more profound kidney function decline, and higher LV mass and volume, as well as impaired right ventricular structure and function, were each associated with renal events. Assessing these parameters may help identify patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction at higher risk for adverse renal events and indicate potential therapeutic targets.
