Review in JACC. CardioOncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 44 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an infiltrative cardiomyopathy caused by the extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils in the myocardium. Although cardiac amyloidosis patients primarily present with heart failure symptoms, arrhythmias and conduction system disease are frequently encountered. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is observed in up to 70% of patients at the time of diagnosis, and patients typically have controlled ventricular rates caused by concomitant conduction system disease. Thromboembolic risk is particularly high in patients with CA and AF, and left atrial thrombi have been observed even in the absence of clinically diagnosed AF. Atrioventricular nodal and infra-Hisian disease are common, and permanent pacemakers are frequently required. The use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators in this population is controversial. This review summarizes the published data and therapeutic strategies surrounding arrhythmias and conduction system disease with the goal of aiding clinicians managing the clinical complexities of CA.
