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

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a highly underdiagnosed cause of heart failure. Amyloid light-chain (AL) and amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) cardiomyopathy are two major subtypes of cardiac amyloid. Amyloid fibril deposits cause cardiac dysfunction by mechanically infiltrating the myocardium or by direct cardiotoxicity. Achieving a timely diagnosis is important to initiate disease-modifying therapies and improve the survival of patients with CA. Therefore, physicians must be aware of "red flag symptoms" that increase suspicions for CA when assessing heart failure patients. Although endomyocardial biopsy is a definitive diagnostic tool, with recent advances in non-invasive imaging, non-biopsy diagnosis is feasible in ATTR CA. There have been major advances in treatments for both AL and ATTR CA, and survival of CA has improved. In addition to general management of heart failure, numerous treatment options are increasing for both AL and ATTR CA. Given the systemic nature of amyloids, multi-disciplined team approaches are crucial to management of CA. With recent development of diagnosis and treatment options for both AL and ATTR amyloidosis, it is no longer considered a non-treatable disease.
