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

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the most devastating complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The greatest challenge in the management of HCM is identifying those at increased risk, since an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a potentially life-saving therapy. We sought to summarize the available data on SCD in HCM and provide a clinical perspective on the current differing and somewhat conflicting data on risk stratification, with balanced guidance regarding rational clinical decision-making. Additionally, we sought to determine the status of the current implementation of guidelines compiled by HCM experts worldwide. The HCM Risk-SCD model helps improve the risk stratification of HCM patients for primary prevention of SCD by calculating an individual risk estimate that contributes to the clinical decision-making process. Improved risk stratification is important for decision-making before ICD implantation for the primary prevention of SCD.
