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

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) present a high risk for sudden cardiac death in pediatric patients. The aim of this study was to identify disease-associated genetic variants in Japanese patients with pediatric HCM and RCM. We analyzed 67 cardiomyopathy-associated genes in 46 HCM and 7 RCM patients diagnosed before 16 years of age using a next-generation sequencing system. We found that 78% of HCM and 71% of RCM patients carried disease-associated genetic variants. Disease-associated genetic variants were identified in 80% of HCM patients with a family history and in 77% of HCM patients with no apparent family history (NFH). MYH7 and/or MYBPC3 variants comprised 76% of HCM-associated variants, whereas troponin complex-encoding genes comprised 75% of the RCM-associated variants. In addition, 91% of HCM patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and infant cases had NFH, and the 88% of HCM patients carrying disease-associated genetic variants were males who carried MYH7 or MYBPC3 variants. Moreover, two disease-associated LAMP2, one DES and one FHOD3 variants, were identified in HCM patients. In this study, pediatric HCM and RCM patients were found to carry disease-associated genetic variants at a high rate. Most of the variants were in MYH7 or MYPBC3 for HCM and TNNT2 or TNNI3 for RCM.
