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

backgroundOsteopontin (OPN) is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that plays a role in a variety of cellular activities associated with inflammatory and fibrotic responses. Increased OPN levels in myocardium and plasma have been demonstrated in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, nothing is known about OPN levels in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Therefore, the aim of our study was to compare plasma OPN levels in patients with these two most common cardiomyopathies. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe examined plasma OPN as well as creatinine, C‑reactive protein (CRP), brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and troponin I levels in 64 patients with DCM, 43 patients with HCM, and 75 control subjects. Transthoracic echocardiography was also performed on all cardiomyopathy patients.

resultsPlasma OPN levels were significantly elevated in patients with DCM compared with HCM patients (95 ± 43 vs. 57 ± 21 ng/ml; p < 0.001) and control subjects (54 ± 19 ng/ml; p < 0.001); however, there was no difference between HCM patients and control subjects. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV disease was more frequently present in DCM patients than in HCM subjects (44 % vs. 2 %, p < 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, BNP and CRP levels together with NYHA class were found to be significant predictors of plasma OPN levels in DCM patients (p = 0.002, p = 0.029, and p < 0.001 for BNP, CRP, and NYHA, respectively).

conclusionPlasma OPN levels were associated with overall heart failure severity rather than with specific cardiomyopathy subtype in patients suffering from DCM or HCM, respectively.
