Cardiac Toxicity and Anthracyclines: Mechanism, Interventions, and the Trouble With Troponin.
Review in Journal of the advanced practitioner in oncology. 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
As cancer survivorship increases, clinicians need to become educated regarding the long-term effect of cancer treatments. Cancer therapeutics-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is one such sequela that contributes to significant morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, screening and management practices regarding CTRCD are inconsistent within guidelines and practice. This review will first look at anthracycline-related cardiac dysfunction occurrence and pathophysiology. Current guidelines for CTRCD screening will be discussed, including the use of 2D echocardiograms along with newer technology such as 3D echocardiography and global systolic longitudinal myocardial strain (GLS) measurements. Biomarkers like serum troponin demonstrate promise as an early indicator of cardiomyocyte injury and a potential means of risk stratification; however, guidelines vary regarding how best to incorporate elevated serum troponin levels into management plans. Growing evidence indicates the clinical need for early detection of CTRCD in order to initiate preventative pharmacologic management and improve patient outcomes.
