CMR Characteristics, gene variants and long-term outcome in patients with left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy.
Article in Insights into imaging, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundAs the paucity of data focusing on evaluating cardiac structure and function in patients with or without gene mutation, this study was sought to investigate the correlation between genotype and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) phenotype in patients with left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy (LVNC) and to explore prognostic relevance in this cohort if possible.
methodsPatients with LVNC who underwent CMR and targeted gene sequencing between 2006 and 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. Demographic data, clinical presentation, genetic analysis, CMR data and follow-up data of all participants were collected.
resultsCompared to negative genotype (G-) group, patients with positive genotype (G+) had larger left atrial volume (LAV), and carriers of multiple variants had lower left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and cardiac index, increased LV fibrosis, larger LA volume, reduced LV global circumferential strain, LA reservoir strain and booster pump strain (all p < 0.05). LA volume was able to discriminate patients with G + (all p < 0.05), as well as those with multiple genetic mutation (all p < 0.01). During a median follow-up of 5.1 years, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed worse primary endpoint-free survival among carriers of multiple variants compared to G- group.
conclusionsCMR feature tracking is a remarkable tool to evaluate implication, genetics cascade screen and predict outcome in LVNC population. LA volume is a sensitive and robust indicator for genetic mutational condition, of which facilities to guide clinical management and intensity of follow-up for patients and their relatives.
