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

In recent years a phenotypic variant of Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy has been described, characterized by predominant left ventricular (LV) involvement with no or minor right ventricular abnormalities, referred to as Arrhythmogenic left ventricular cardiomyopathy (ALVC). Different disease-genes have been identified in this form, such as Desmoplakin (DSP), Filamin C (FLNC), Phospholamban (PLN) and Desmin (DES). The main purpose of this critical systematic review was to assess the level of knowledge on genetic background and clinical features of ALVC. A search (updated to April 2022) was run in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science electronic databases. The search terms used were "arrhythmogenic left ventricular cardiomyopathy" OR "arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy" and "gene" OR "arrhythmogenic dysplasia" and "gene". The most represented disease-gene turned out to be DSP, accounting for half of published cases, followed by FLNC. Overall, ECG abnormalities were reported in 58% of patients. Major ventricular arrhythmias were recorded in 26% of cases; an ICD was implanted in 29% of patients. A total of 6% of patients showed heart failure symptoms, and 15% had myocarditis-like episodes. DSP is confirmed to be the most represented disease-gene in ALVC patients. An analysis of reported clinical features of ALVC patients show an important degree of electrical instability, which frequently required an ICD implant. Moreover, myocarditis-like episodes are common.
