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

Cardiac metabolic flexibility is a key determinant of myocardial energetic resilience. In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), intrinsic mitochondrial dysfunction and lipotoxicity compromise oxidative capacity. In contrast, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is orchestrated primarily by systemic comorbidities and coronary microvascular dysfunction, which decouple glycolysis from glucose oxidation. This review integrates these distinct pathophysiologies into a comprehensive biomarker framework. Beyond core hemodynamic markers, we detail indices of metabolic flux (ketones, acylcarnitines, branched-chain amino acids), endothelial injury, and fibrosis. We further prose a shift from static, isolated measurements to dynamic functional profiling using standardized challenges (e.g., mixed-meal or exercise tests) to quantify metabolic suppression and recovery kinetics. This structured hierarchy enables phenotype-tailored risk stratification and guides mechanism-based precision therapies in the era of personalized medicine.
