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

objectiveCardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is an uncontested diagnostic tool for identifying and assessing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. Concerning the necessity to identify valid prognosticators for predicting the individual risk of clinical evolution, this study aimed to evaluate the clinical validity of CMR tissue tracking (TT) analysis in patients affected by primitive HCM in a real-world setting.

methodsThis historical prospective study included 33 patients. Diagnostic validity and clinical validation were assessed for strain values. CMR-TT diagnostic validity was studied comparing HCM patients with healthy control groups and phenotypic presentation of HCM. The impact of strain values and all phenotypic disease characteristics were assessed in a long-term follow-up study.

resultsThe inter-reading agreement was good for all strain parameters. Significant differences were observed between the control group and HCM patients. Similarly, hypertrophic and LGE + segments showed lower deformability than healthy segments. The AUC of predictive model, including conventional risk factors for MACE occurrence and all strain values, reached 98% of diagnostic concordance (95% CI .94-1; standard error: .02; p value .0001), compared to conventional risk factors only (86%; 95% CI .73-99; standard error: .07; p value .002).

conclusionIn patients with primitive HCM, CMR-TT strain proves high clinical validity providing independent and non-negligible prognostic advantages over clinical features and traditional CMR markers.
