Review in JACC. CardioOncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06005259 (Effect of Spironolactone in the Prevention of Anthracycline-induced Cardiotoxicity), which is not on this map. Cited by 98 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.

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.

Abstract

Cardiotoxicity is a relatively frequent and potentially serious side effect of traditional and targeted cancer therapies. Both general measures and specific pharmacologic cardioprotective interventions as well as imaging- and biomarker-based surveillance strategies to identify patients at high risk have been tested in randomized controlled trials to prevent or attenuate cancer therapy-related cardiotoxic effects. Although meta-analyses including early trials suggest an overall beneficial effect, there is substantial heterogeneity in results. Recent randomized controlled trials of neurohormonal inhibitors in patients receiving anthracyclines and/or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-targeted therapies have shown a lower rate of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction than previously reported and a modest or no sustained effect of the interventions. Data on preventive cardioprotective strategies for novel cancer drugs are lacking. Larger, prospective multicenter randomized clinical trials testing traditional and novel interventions are required to more accurately define the benefit of different cardioprotective strategies and to refine risk prediction and identify patients who are likely to benefit.
