Findings and Outcome of Transcatheter Right Ventricular Endomyocardial Biopsy and Hemodynamic Assessment in Children with Suspected Myocarditis or Cardiomyopathy.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThe study objective is assessing findings and outcome in children with suspected cardiomyopathy (CMP) or myocarditis undergoing cardiac catheterization with transcatheter right ventricular endomyocardial biopsy (RV-EMB).
methodsAll consecutive children undergoing cardiac catheterization with RV-EMB for suspected CMP/myocarditis between 2002-2021 were analysed regarding clinical presentation, cardiac biomarkers, periprocedural management, hemodynamic, histological/immunohistological findings, and outcome.
resultsEighty-five RV-EMBs were performed in 81 patients at a median age of 6.8 (IQR 9.9) years and a bodyweight of 20 (32.2) kg. Histological/immunohistological findings of RV-EMB revealed dilated CMP in 10 (12%), chronic myocarditis in 28 (33%), healing myocarditis in 5 (6%), acute myocarditis in 9 (11%), other heart muscle diseases in 23 (27%) (7 restrictive CMP, 5 hypertrophic CMP, 4 toxic/anthracycline-induced CMP, 4 endocardfibroelastosis, 1 arrhythmogenic right ventricular CMP, 1 laminin CMP, 1 haemangioma), no conclusive histology in 7 (8%), and normal histology in 3 (4%) patients. Median LVEDP was 17 mmHg (IQR 9), LAP 15 mmHg (10), and PVR 1.83 (1.87) Wood Units/m
conclusionHemodynamic invasive data and morphological findings in RV-EMB complete clinical diagnosis in children with suspected CMP/myocarditis and provide important information for further clinical management.
