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

Cardiomyopathy has variable penetrance. We analyzed age and sex-related genetic differences in 1,397 cardiomyopathy patients (Ontario, UK) with whole genome sequencing. Pediatric cases (n = 471) harbored more deleterious protein-coding variants in Tier 1 cardiomyopathy genes compared to adults (n = 926) (34.6% vs 25.9% respectively, p = 0.0015), with variant enrichment in constrained coding regions. Pediatric patients had a higher burden of sarcomere and lower burden of channelopathy gene variants compared to adults. Specifically, pediatric patients had more MYH7 and MYL3 variants in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and fewer TTN truncating variants in dilated cardiomyopathy. MYH7 variants clustered in the myosin head and neck domains in children. OBSCN was a top mutated gene in adults, enriched for protein-truncating variants. In dilated cardiomyopathy, female patients had a higher burden of z-disc gene variants compared to males. Genetic differences may explain age and sex-related variability in cardiomyopathy penetrance. Genotype-guided predictions of age of onset can inform pre-test genetic counseling. Pediatric cardiomyopathy patients were more likely to be genotype-positive than adults with a higher burden of variants in MYH7, MYL3, TNNT2, VCL. Adults had a higher burden of OBSCN and TTN variants. Females with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) had a higher burden of z-disc gene variants compared to males.
