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

backgroundObesity, insulin resistance (IR), and diabetes are common in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and are associated with worsening heart failure, but their independent contributions remain unknown.

objectivesIn this study, we sought to determine the contribution of diabetes vs obesity to left heart abnormalities in HFpEF

methodsIndices of adiposity (body mass index [BMI], bioimpedance fat mass, waist circumference) and IR (homeostasis-model assessment [HOMA]) were measured among PVDOMICS study participants with HFpEF. Rest and exercise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) responses were compared, stratified by obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m

resultsOf 276 patients with HFpEF, 246 (89%) had increased waist/height ratio, and 166 (60%) had BMI ≥30 kg/m

conclusionsExcess adiposity is present in most patients with HFpEF, even among those not considered obese according to BMI, calling for further study of cardiometabolic therapies among patients with HFpEF and excess adiposity with BMI <30 kg/m
