Left Ventricular Apical Aneurysm in Fabry Disease: Implications for Clinical Significance and Risk Stratification.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Background A previously underrecognized phenotype of left ventricular apical aneurysm (LVAA) has been increasingly identified in Fabry disease. This study explored LVAA's clinical prevalence and its prognostic implications over a long-term follow-up. Methods and Results We retrospectively analyzed 268 consecutive patients with Fabry disease at a tertiary medical center. Patients with increased left ventricular mass index were recognized as having left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). LVAA was identified using either echocardiography or cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. Two patients with ischemic LVAA were excluded. The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular events, including heart failure hospitalization, sustained ventricular tachycardia, ischemic stroke, and all-cause mortality. Of 266 enrolled patients, 105 (39.5%) had LVH (age 58.5±11.9 years, 48.6% men), and 11 (10.5%) had LVAA. Over 49.3±34.8 months of follow-up, 25 patients with LVH experienced composite events, including 9 heart failure hospitalizations, 4 sustained ventricular tachycardia, 6 ischemic strokes, and 15 mortalities. In patients with LVH, those with LVAA had a significantly higher risk of composite events and lower event-free survival than those without LVAA (8 [72.7%] versus 17 [18.1%], log-rank
