Outcomes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Japanese children: a retrospective cohort study.
Observational study in Heart and vessels, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There has been no multicenter study on the prognosis of pediatric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in Japan. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective multicenter observational study on the long-term survival rate in patients diagnosed with HCM under the age of 18 between 1990 and 2014. Twenty institutions participated. A total of 180 patients were identified. The median age at diagnosis was 5.8 years old and median duration of observation was 8.3 years. Although six patients (3%) deteriorated into the dilated phase of HCM, no patient received heart transplantation. Freedom from death at 1, 5, 10, and 20 years were 97%, 92%, 84%, and 80%, respectively. There were 26 deaths. Among them, 11 patients died suddenly, presumably due to arrhythmia, and 15 patients died of heart failure. The presence of heart failure symptoms and a greater cardiothoracic ratio were significant risk factors for heart failure-related death. There were no significant risk factors identified for arrhythmia-related death. In conclusion, the prognosis of pediatric HCM in Japan is good and similar to those reported in population-based studies in the United States and Australia. Significant risk factors for heart failure-related death were identified in pediatric patients with HCM in Japan.
