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

Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is characterized by a bilayered appearance of the myocardium with excessive trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses. Manifestations of this condition are widely variable, ranging from incidental findings in asymptomatic individuals to symptomatic heart failure, conduction abnormalities, tachyarrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death. Heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias, and systemic embolisms are the most frequent cardiovascular complications. We describe a case of a 53-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department with acute presentation of previously unknown heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and was diagnosed with LVNC. During hospitalization, the patient presented a defibrillated cardiac arrest rhythm, which was resuscitated after six minutes, and then treated with the placement of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. After two years of follow-up with optimized medical therapy, the patient currently is asymptomatic and with a preserved ejection fraction.
