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

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) related to ventricular arrhythmias is the most disastrous consequence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Hence, clinicians seek to identify the highest risk patients that have the greatest potential to benefit from an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) for primary prevention; nonetheless, this is where controversies begin as the 2011 American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association and the 2014 European Society of Cardiology guidelines have significant discrepancies. These guidelines propose clinically and statistically oriented algorithms, respectively, for SCD risk stratification of patients with HCM and recommendation to implantation of primary prevention ICD. The differences between these guidelines have resulted in confusion among care practitioners and patients alike. In this communication, we tried to criticize the statistical viewpoint in terms of clinical outcomes and suggest the more beneficial model.
