Sacubitril/valsartan affects pulmonary arterial pressure in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and pulmonary hypertension among PD patients.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposePulmonary hypertension is an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, there is still no effective treatment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in PD patients with HFpEF and pulmonary hypertension. PATIENTS AND
methods145 PD patients with HFpEF and pulmonary hypertension receiving sacubitril/valsartan were recruited in this study. 38 PD patients with HFpEF and pulmonary hypertension treated with angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) were enrolled as the control group. The follow-up time was 3 months. We evaluate efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan through biochemical parameters, and echocardiographic indicators, and adverse reactions.
resultsAt the end of follow-up, the pulmonary artery pressure was significantly lower [33.00 (23.00, 45.50) vs 48.00 (40.00, 54.00) mmHg, P < 0.001] after the treatment of sacubitril/valsartan. The percentage change of pulmonary artery pressure after the treatment of sacubitril/valsartan was significantly higher than that of ARB [-30.00 (-48.78, -8.23) vs -8.57 (-12.80, -0.85) %, P < 0.001]. As the biomarkers of heart failure, the levels N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor and cardiac troponin I were remarkably reduced after the treatment with sacubitril/valsartan. Sacubitril/valsartan can also attenuate left-ventricular remodeling among PD patients. While, ARB does not show significant advantages compared to sacubitril/valsartan.
conclusionOur study suggested that sacubitril/valsartan treatment might be an effective treatment for PD patients with HFpEF and pulmonary hypertension.
