Risk Stratification in Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis: The Added Value of Lung Spirometry.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) is an increasingly recognized disease that often results in heart failure and death. Traditionally, biological staging systems are used to stratify disease severity. Reduced aerobic capacity has recently been described as useful in identifying higher risk of cardiovascular events and death. Assessment of lung volume via simple spirometry might also hold prognostic relevance. We aimed to assess the combined prognostic value of spirometry, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and biomarker staging in ATTR-CA patients in a multi-parametric approach. We retrospectively reviewed patient records with pulmonary function and CPET testing. Patients were followed until study endpoint (MACE: composite of heart-failure-related hospitalization and all-cause death) or censure (1 April 2022). In total, 82 patients were enrolled. Median follow-up was 9 months with 31 (38%) MACE. Impaired peak VO
