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

introductionTroponin (TNN)-encoded cardiac troponins (Tn) are critical for sensing calcium and triggering myofilament contraction. TNN variants are associated with development of cardiomyopathy; however, recent advances in genetic analysis have identified rare population variants. It is unclear how certain variants are associated with disease while others are tolerated.

objectiveTo compare probands with TNNT2, TNNI3, and TNNC1 variants and utilize high-resolution variant comparison mapping of pathologic and rare population variants to identify loci associated with disease pathogenesis.

methodsCardiomyopathy-associated TNN variants were identified in the literature and topology mapping conducted. Clinical features were compiled and compared. Rare population variants were obtained from the gnomAD database. Signal-to-noise (S:N) normalized pathologic variant frequency against population variant frequency. Abstract review of clinical phenotypes was applied to "significant" hot spots.

resultsProbands were compiled (N = 70 studies, 224 probands) as were rare variants (N = 125,748 exomes; 15,708 genomes, MAF <0.001). TNNC1-positive probands demonstrated the youngest age of presentation (20.0 years; P = .016 vs TNNT2; P = .004 vs TNNI3) and the highest death, transplant, or ventricular fibrillation events (P = .093 vs TNNT2; P = .024 vs TNNI3; Kaplan Meir: P = .025). S:N analysis yielded hot spots of diagnostic significance within the tropomyosin-binding domains, α-helix 1, and the N-Terminus in TNNT2 with increased sudden cardiac death and ventricular fibrillation (P = .004). The inhibitory region and C-terminal region in TNNI3 exhibited increased restrictive cardiomyopathy (P =.008). HCM and RCM models tended to have increased calcium sensitivity and DCM decreased sensitivity (P < .001). DCM and HCM studies typically showed no differences in Hill coefficient which was decreased in RCM models (P < .001). CM models typically demonstrated no changes to F

conclusionTNNC1-positive probands had younger ages of diagnosis and poorer clinical outcomes. Mapping of TNN variants identified locations in TNNT2 and TNNI3 associated with heightened pathogenicity, RCM diagnosis, and increased risk of sudden death.
