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

Background: Studies have reported the association of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) with cardiac structure and function as well as exercise capacity in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), yielding inconsistent results. We aimed to conduct a Methods and Results: We searched studies examining the association of EAT quantified by echocardiography, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with cardiac structure and function or exercise capacity in HFpEF patients through PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. In cases of significant heterogeneity (I Conclusion: Our
