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

In the present paper, we will discuss the main cardiomyopathies affecting children with a specific focus on risk stratification and prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). We will discuss the main clinical features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated and restrictive cardiomyopathies, left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (AC), always highlighting their peculiarities in the pediatric age. Since sudden cardiac death may be the first manifestation of the disease, even in children, the identification of the specific underlying condition and of risk factors are pivotal to carry out the appropriate preventing strategies. ICD recommendations in children are similar to adults, but supporting evidences are not so solid, being based on registries or single center studies. Furthermore, children and young patients are most likely to manifest long term complications related to an implanted ICD, and this should be taken into account when evaluating the risk benefit ratio. In this perspective, subcutaneous ICDs (S-ICDs) could carry an advantage; however, they cannot be considered in small children for technical reasons. Data on effectiveness and safety of S-ICDs in a pediatric population is still lacking, although some limited experiences are reported and will be discussed in the current review.
