Association of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide with left ventricular structure: J-HOP study.
Trial report in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Although both high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (Hs-cTnT) and N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels are higher among patients with cardiac structural abnormalities than among those with apparently normal hearts, there is considerable overlap between the groups. The authors evaluated 1336 patients who had ≥1 cardiovascular risk factors, underwent echocardiography, and had Hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP measured and excluded patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. The patients in the highest Hs-cTnT category in quintiles had an increased likelihood of abnormal relative wall thickness compared with those in the lowest category (odds ratio, 1.66; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-2.36; P<.01). However, no such association was found in the category of NT-proBNP. The patients in the highest NT-proBNP category had an increased likelihood of abnormal LV diastolic dimension/body surface area compared with those in the lowest category (odds ratio, 2.11; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-3.79; P<.05). However, no such association was found in the category of Hs-cTnT. The data suggest that the measurement of Hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP might provide information on cardiac structural abnormalities.
