Influence of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase on Cardiac, Vascular, and Renal Structure and Function: A Physiopathological Insight.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The role of nitric oxide (NO), soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), and the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway in cardiovascular and renal health and disease is a complex issue. The impact of these biochemical pathways on the vascular tree is well established: the activation of sGC by NO promotes vasodilation and modulates vascular tone. Indeed, additional characteristics exist that lead physicians to believe there is a pleiotropic influence of this pathway on the functional activities and structural characteristics of human tissues and cells. Recently, sGC stimulators have demonstrated clinical efficacy in patients with worsening heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, improving cardiovascular death risk, re-hospitalization for HF, and all-cause mortality. These new outcome data have increased interest in understanding the potential pathophysiological mechanisms. The NO-sGC-cGMP axis may influence endothelial function, kidney performance, and cardiac muscle cell activity. The synergy of these actions could explain the positive effects of vericiguat on worsening HF. The aim of this narrative review was to provide a comprehensive insight into the pathophysiological mechanisms of action of NO-sGC-cGMP axis stimulators on cardiac muscle, endothelial cells, and kidneys.
