Rare presentation of Fabry disease as 'burnt-out' hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

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
We herein report the case of a 53-year-old man who was historically diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and was lost to follow-up, before presenting with end-stage heart failure. This was initially suspected as dilated cardiomyopathy and then 'burnt-out phase' of HCM but subsequently the underlying diagnosis was Fabry disease. Fabry disease is an uncommon lysosomal-storage disease due to reduced or absent activity of the alpha-galactosidase A enzyme. Cardiac involvement most frequently comprises left ventricular hypertrophy. Early treatment of the underlying condition with enzyme replacement therapy may prevent the progression to end-stage heart failure. Fabry disease should be considered in all patients presenting with a clinical phenotype of HCM and a historical diagnosis should be re-evaluated in light of new diagnostic tools. Untreated Fabry can progress to a 'burnt out' phase, whereby initial hypertrophy undergoes eccentric remodelling to a dilated, severely impaired left ventricle.
