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

"Circumnavigation" is never used as a verb in cardiology. Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is a complex entity that often involves the mitral valve leading to eccentric mitral regurgitation. Utilizing multimodality imaging, assessing the severity of mitral regurgitation, and phenotyping the type of myocardial hypertrophy are achievable with certainty. We describe a case of a 42-year-old male who presented with palpitations and was ultimately diagnosed with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with a mitral regurgitation. The torrential mitral regurgitation jet was so severe that it was "circumnavigating" the left atrium. In addition, we also draw historical parallelism with Magellan's heroic "circumnavigation" of the globe as we celebrate 500 years of his journey. Furthermore, we also describe the multimodality assessment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy utilizing transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. We discuss the challenges in quantifying such severe mitral regurgitation with any individual imaging modality.
