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

aimsClonal haematopoiesis (CH) is recognized as a significant risk factor for various non-haematologic conditions, including cardiovascular diseases. However, recent studies examining its relationship with heart failure (HF) have reported conflicting findings. To address these inconsistencies, the present meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association of CH with the incidence and clinical outcomes of HF. METHODS AND

resultsMEDLINE, Cochrane Library and Scopus were searched until 12 December 2024. Triple-independent study selection, data extraction and quality assessment were performed. Evidence was pooled using three-level mixed-effects meta-analyses. Participants (n = 57 755) with CH had significantly greater risk of new-onset HF compared to the non-CH group (hazard ratio [HR] 1.23, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-1.35, p < 0.0001; I

conclusionClonal haematopoiesis is associated with an increased risk of incident HF and worse prognosis in individuals affected by HF. These findings highlight the potential of CH to contribute to a deeper understanding of HF, improve risk stratification, and support more personalized approaches to its management.
