Galectin-3 and Strain Imaging for Early Heart Failure Prediction After First Myocardial Infarction.
Article 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 2 papers.
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
Galectin-3 (Gal-3), a biomarker of fibrosis, is involved in post-infarction remodelling, but its short-term prognostic value remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of Gal-3 for new-onset heart failure (HF) in first acute myocardial infarction (MI) during the in-hospital phase following MI and to assess its association with advanced echocardiographic indices of myocardial and atrial dysfunction, including left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) and left atrial reservoir strain. In this prospective study, 105 consecutive patients with STEMI/NSTEMI (mean age 61 ± 11 years) were enrolled. New-onset HF, defined by symptoms, elevated NT-proBNP, and echocardiographic LV dysfunction, developed in 34 patients (32%) during follow-up of a median of 10 [8-13] days. Median serum Gal-3 concentration was 11.6 [9.5-13.5] ng/mL. Gal-3 correlated with echocardiographic indices of myocardial and atrial dysfunction (
