Ceramide and phosphatidylcholine lipids-based risk score predicts major cardiovascular outcomes in patients with heart failure.
Trial report in European journal of clinical investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundCeramide and phosphatidylcholine lipids-based risk score (CERT2) has shown a strong prognostic value in predicting cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with ischemic heart disease. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of CERT2 risk score in patients with heart failure (HF).
methodsThe current study combines data for 4234 subjects from the COMMANDER-HF trial and 1227 subjects from the GISSI-HF trial, which enrolled patients with a history of HF. The CERT2 risk score was calculated for all the participants as previously described. The primary outcome was CV death, but all-cause death and major adverse CV events (three-point MACE) were analysed as well.
resultsAfter adjustment for established CV risk factors and potential confounders, patients with the highest CERT2 risk category remained at almost three-fold higher risk of CV death (COMMANDER-HF: HR 2.80, 95% CI 2.18-3.60, GISSI-HF: 2.84, 95% CI 1.70-4.74), all-cause death (COMMANDER-HF: HR 2.97, 95% CI 2.36-3.75, GISSI-HF: 2.83, 95% CI 1.83-4.38) and MACE (COMMANDER-HF: HR 2.73, 95% CI 2.20-3.38, GISSI-HF: 2.67, 95% CI 1.67-4.26) compared to those with the lowest CERT2 risk category.
conclusionsThe CERT2 risk score is strongly associated with an increased risk of CV death, all-cause death and MACE in patients with HF.
