Article in European journal of heart failure, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07560306 ([64Cu]FBP8 PET for Early Detection of Intracardiac Thrombus in Amyloid Cardiomyopathy), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

aimsAlthough systemic embolism is a potential complication in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), data about its incidence and prevalence are scarce. We studied the incidence, prevalence and factors associated with embolic events in ATTR-CM. Additionally, we evaluated embolic events according to the type of oral anticoagulation (OAC) and the performance of the CHA METHODS AND

resultsClinical characteristics, history of atrial fibrillation (AF) and embolic events were retrospectively collected from ATTR-CM patients evaluated at four international amyloid centres. Overall, 1191 ATTR-CM patients (87% men, median age 77.1 years [interquartile range-IQR 71.4-82], 83% ATTRwt) were studied. A total of 162 (13.6%) have had an embolic event before initial evaluation. Over a median follow-up of 19.9 months (IQR 9.9-35.5), 41 additional patients (3.44%) had an embolic event. Incidence rate (per 100 patient-years) was 0 among patients in sinus rhythm with OAC, 1.3 in sinus rhythm without OAC, 1.7 in AF with OAC, and 4.8 in AF without OAC. CHA

conclusionsEmbolic events were a frequent complication in ATTR-CM. OAC reduced the risk of systemic embolism. Embolic rates did not differ with VKAs and DOACs. The CHA
