Assessment of prognosis in immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis patients with severe heart failure: a predictive value of right ventricular function.
Observational study in Heart and vessels, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Although the benefit of updated therapeutic regimens, including bortezomib, on the survival of immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis patients with heart failure (HF) has been reported, predictors of mortality in the patients treated with the updated therapy remain unclear. We retrospectively enrolled AL amyloidosis patients who had severe HF at the time of diagnosis and received the updated therapy, including bortezomib (n = 19, 61 ± 6 years old, 68% male). Severe HF was defined as the presence of both NYHA functional class III or IV and BNP > 200 pg/ml or NT-pro-BNP > 900 pg/ml. One-year mortality rate during follow-up after commencement of the treatment was 37%. Left ventricular morphological parameters and indexes of left ventricular diastolic function on admission were similar in the non-survivors and survivors. However, non-survivors had higher incidences of atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, higher serum total bilirubin levels (1.34 ± 0.55 vs. 0.61 ± 0.29 mg/dl), higher right atrial volume index (RAVI 49.7 ± 29.9 vs. 27.3 ± 6.8 ml/m
