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

backgroundWe aimed to determine the correlation between phase analysis, reflecting the heterogeneity of perfusion defects, and the dyssynchrony of the left ventricle wall motion, and adverse cardiac events in cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) patients.

methodsFifty-seven consecutive patients with diagnosed CS (64 [IQR 55-71] years old, 14 males), who underwent

resultsThe median of BW was 56° (IQR 40-95). BW showed a strong inverse correlation with LVEF (r = - 0.60, P < 0.0001), and positive correlation with SRS (r = 0.82, P < 0.0001). However, there were no significant correlations between BW and CMV or TLG. The Kaplan-Meier curves revealed a significantly higher rate of MACE in the high BW group (BW > 56°) than the low BW group (BW ≤ 56°) (15.1%/years vs. 4.4%/years, P = 0.025). In multivariable analysis, BW was a significant independent predictor of MACE (P = 0.015).

conclusionPhase analysis on gated SPECT was a significant and independent predictor of MACE in patients with CS.
