Septal radioablation therapy for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: first-in-human study.
Article in European heart journal open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04686487 (Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy in Patients With Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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.

Abstract
Aims: There is still no non-invasive septal reduction therapy for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). This study aimed to investigate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with drug-refractory symptomatic HOCM. Methods and results: The radiation target of ventricular septum was determined by multiple anatomical imaging. Stereotactic body radiotherapy was performed with standard techniques. Patients were treated with a single fraction of 25 Gy, followed up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months by clinical visit. Five patients were enrolled and completed the 12 months follow-up. The mean radioablation time was 21.6 min, and the mean target volume was 10.5 cm Conclusion: The current study suggests that SBRT might be a feasible radioablation therapeutic option for patients with drug-refractory symptomatic HOCM. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04686487.
