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

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and emerging dual incretin therapies have demonstrated substantial effects on weight reduction and metabolic improvement, with growing evidence supporting favorable cardiovascular outcomes. This narrative review provides a focused overview of key cardiovascular outcomes trials (CVOTs) and HFpEF-oriented clinical studies evaluating GLP-1 RA and dual incretin therapies in patients living with obesity, including completed and ongoing investigations. We summarize trial characteristics, critically appraise their outcomes, and briefly discuss mechanistic pathways potentially linking incretin-based therapies to cardiovascular and HFpEF-related benefits. Because available data derive from heterogeneous study designs, we explicitly distinguish evidence from type 2 diabetes cardiovascular outcomes trials, obesity-without-diabetes cardiovascular outcomes trials, HFpEF-specific randomized trials, mechanistic substudies, ongoing trials, and real-world observational analyses. We also situate incretin-based therapies within contemporary obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular, and HFpEF guideline-directed care. Finally, we identify current knowledge gaps, future research priorities, and innovative approaches needed to refine personalized therapeutic strategies and optimize patient-centered outcomes in obesity-associated HFpEF.
