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

Apical aneurysm was observed to be associated with midventricular obstruction (MVO) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). To investigate the genesis of the apical aneurysm, the idealized numerical left ventricular models (finite-element left ventricle models) of the healthy left ventricle, subaortic obstruction, and midventricular obstruction in HCM of left ventricle were created. The mechanical effects in the formation of apical aneurysm were determined by comparing the myofiber stress on the apical wall between these three models (healthy, subaortic obstruction, and midventricular obstruction models). In comparing the subaortic obstruction model and MVO model with HCM, it was found that, at the time of maximum pressure, the maximum value of myofiber stress in MVO model was 75.0% higher than that in the subaortic obstruction model (654.5 kPa vs. 373.9 kPa). The maximum stress on the apex of LV increased 79.9, 69.3, 117.8% than that on the myocardium around the apex in healthy model, subaortic obstruction model, and MVO model, respectively. Our results indicated that high myofiber stress on the apical wall might initiate the formation process of the apical aneurysm.
