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

backgroundStress Hyperglycemia Ratio (SHR) has been confirmed to be a predictor for adverse outcomes in cardiovascular diseases in recent years. However, the impact of SHR on one-year mortality in patients diagnosed with heart failure (HF) is still unclear. This study aims to explore the relationship between SHR and one-year mortality in HF patients, both complicated with and without diabetes mellitus (DM).

methodsThis study enrolled 3747 patients with HF from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) database. 1865 patients were set into the group of lower SHR (SHR < 0.964) and 1882 patients were in the higher group (SHR ≥ 0.964). The primary endpoint was one-year mortality.

resultsThe mean age of the total study population was 69 ± 13, and 1530 (40.8%) of them were female. Finally, 188 (5.0%) patients died in the hospital and 766 (20.4%) patients died during a one-year follow-up. Patients in the higher SHR group had a longer hospital stay (2.7% vs. 2.4%, p < 0.001) and higher in-hospital mortality (8 vs. 7, p < 0.001) than those in the lower group. The Kaplan-Meier curves also show that higher SHR is associated with an elevated risk of one-year mortality in patients with HF, both in the DM and non-DM groups (all log-rank p < 0.0001). As a continuous variable, SHR was an independent predictor for one-year mortality [hazard ratio (HR), 2.893; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.198-3.808]. Elevated SHR was significantly associated with higher risk of one-year mortality in patients with (HR, 1.499; 95% CI, 1.104-2.036) and without DM (HR, 1.300; 95% CI, 1.096-1.542), consistently. The RCS curve shows a gradual increase in the probability of one-year mortality as the value of SHR increases for HF patients.

conclusionOur findings indicated that a higher level of SHR was associated with elevated one-year mortality in HF patients both with and without DM, suggesting that SHR is a promising stratification indicator for predicting the risk of death in patients with HF.
