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

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a complex, underestimated, multifaceted disease frequently associated with left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. It is clearly demonstrated that this is due not only to septal hypertrophy but also to systolic anterior motion (SAM) of mitral valve leaflets secondary to mitral valve/subvalvular apparatus abnormalities. Surgical treatment involves performing an extended septal myectomy, eventually followed by ancillary procedures to those structures responsible for maintaining LVOT obstruction, if necessary. In this review, we describe the spectrum of possible surgical techniques beyond septal myectomy and their pathophysiologic rationale.
