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

Aims: There is a need for better phenotypic characterization of the asymptomatic stages of cardiac maladaptation. We tested the hypothesis that an unsupervised clustering analysis utilizing echocardiographic indexes reflecting left heart structure and function could identify phenotypically distinct groups of asymptomatic individuals in the general population. Methods and results: We prospectively studied 1407 community-dwelling individuals (mean age, 51.2 years; 51.1% women), in whom we performed clinical and echocardiographic examination at baseline and collected cardiac events on average 8.8 years later. Cardiac phenotypes that were correlated at Conclusion: Unsupervised learning algorithms integrating routinely measured cardiac imaging and haemodynamic data can provide a clinically meaningful classification of cardiac health in asymptomatic individuals. This approach might facilitate early detection of cardiac maladaptation and improve risk stratification.
