Amino Acid and Phospholipid Metabolism as an Indicator of Inflammation and Subtle Cardiomyopathy in Patients with Marfan Syndrome.
Article in Metabolites, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) have an increased risk of aortic aneurysm formation, dissection and development of a subtle cardiomyopathy. We analyzed amino acid and lipid metabolic pathways in MFS patients, seeking biomarker patterns as potential monitoring tools of cardiovascular risk with deterioration of myocardial function. We assessed myocardial function in 24 adult MFS patients and compared traditional laboratory values and mass spectrometry-based amino acid, phospholipid and acylcarnitine metabolomes in patients with those in healthy controls. Analytes for which values differed between patients and controls were subjected to regression analysis. A high proportion of patients had signs of impaired diastolic function and elevated serum levels of NT-proBNP. Patients had lower serum levels of taurine, histidine and PCaeC42:3 than controls. The evidence of diastolic dysfunction, aortic root dimensions and history of aortic root surgery correlated with NT-proBNP and taurine levels. Alterations in serum levels of metabolism derived analytes link MFS pathophysiology with inflammation, oxidative stress and incipient cardiomyopathy.
