Pharmacologic pitfalls in heart failure: A guide to drugs that may cause or exacerbate heart failure. A European Journal of Heart Failure expert consensus document.
Review in European journal of heart failure, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Heart failure (HF) exerts a global health burden, often complicated by polypharmacy due to the frequent coexistence of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular comorbidities. While guideline-directed medical therapy and devices have significantly improved outcomes, a range of commonly prescribed medications may inadvertently worsen HF or precipitate decompensation. This expert consensus statement provides a comprehensive overview of drugs known to cause or exacerbate HF, offering practical guidance for clinicians to identify and avoid harmful pharmacologic exposures in this vulnerable population. The review examines the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical evidence, and guideline-based recommendations for several drug classes, including antidiabetic agents (e.g. thiazolidinediones, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors), antiarrhythmics (particularly Class I and III), calcium channel blockers, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antifungals (e.g. itraconazole, amphotericin B), macrolide antibiotics, antihypertensives (e.g. α
