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

Cardiac dysfunction due to cardiotoxicity from anthracycline chemotherapy is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in survivors of childhood cancer. The intraventricular pressure gradient (IVPG) of the left ventricle (LV) is the suction force of blood from the left atrium to the LV apex during early diastole and is a sensitive indicator of diastolic function. We assessed IVPG as a new indicator of the cardiac dysfunction in survivors of childhood cancer after anthracycline therapy. We performed a prospective echocardiographic study on 40 survivors of childhood cancer aged 6-26 years who received anthracycline therapy (group A) and 53 similar-age normal controls (group N). The subjects were divided into the younger groups, N1 and A1 (age < 16 years); older groups, N2 and A2 (age ≥ 16 years). IVPG was calculated using color M-mode Doppler imaging of the mitral inflow using Euler's equation. Total IVPG was divided into the basal and mid-to-apical IVPG to demonstrate more clearly the mechanisms of the LV diastolic suction force. The total anthracycline dose was 16.2-600.0 mg/m
