The correlation of left atrial dysfunction and amyloid load in patients with immunoglobulin light-chain cardiac amyloidosis: a 3T cardiac magnetic resonance study.
Article in The British journal of radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo investigate the left atrial (LA) changes in immunoglobulin light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA) patients with different risk stratifications and to explore the correlation between LA function and the degree of amyloid load using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.
methodsForty-three AL-CA patients were retrospectively enrolled and were divided into low-to-moderate-risk group (
resultsCompared with the controls, the AL-CA patients had a larger LA volume, lower left atrial emptying fraction (LAEF) and impaired left atrial strain (LAS). The high-risk group exhibited lower reservoir and booster function and increased LV extracellular volume (LV-ECV) than the low-to-moderate-risk group (
conclusionHigh-risk AL-CA patients showed more severe LA function impairment than low-to-moderate-risk AL-CA patients. LAS and LAEF were closely associated with LV-ECV in AL-CA patients, LAS and LAEF exhibited good capability to differentiate AL-CA patients of different risk stratifications. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: CMR-derived LAS and LAEF were correlated with amyloid load, allowing for differentiation of AL-CA patients at different risk stages.
