Incidence and Predictors of Ventricular Arrhythmias in Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy.
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.
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
backgroundWild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (wtATTR-CM) is characterized by heart failure, conduction abnormalities and arrhythmias. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmias, particularly ventricular tachycardias (VTs), in wtATTR-CM is unclear. With the development of targeted therapies and improved overall prognosis, there is an unmet need to identify patients at high risk for VTs who might benefit from ICD therapy.
methodsBetween 2017 and 2022, 72 patients diagnosed with wtATTR-CM were prospectively evaluated for the presence of ventricular arrhythmias using a Holter ECG. VTs were defined as >3 consecutive beats with a heart rate > 100 beats per minute originating from a ventricle.
resultsThe incidence of VTs was 44% (n = 32/72) in unselected wtATTR-CM patients. Patients with VT showed significantly more severe left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (septum diameter 21 ± 2.6 vs. 19 ± 3.0 mm,
conclusionsThe incidence of ventricular arrhythmia in wtATTR-CM is high and is associated with an advanced stage of left ventricular disease. Further studies are needed evaluating the role of VTs in predicting sudden cardiac death and the benefit of ICD therapy in wtATTR-CM.
