Response: Impact of implantable cardioverter defibrillator on survival in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Our previous study aimed to investigate overall survival (OS) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) variables in nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients treated only with standard medical treatments versus those who received implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) in addition to routine medical treatments. Our findings revealed no significant difference in OS between the two groups (p = .25), but a significant decrease in SCD rate due to ICD insertion (p = .02). Furthermore, we found no significant difference between the two groups concerning baseline characteristics and type of medical treatments received. We attempted to answer and clarify the concerning points regarding the survival benefits of ICD insertion in nonischemic DCM patients that were mentioned.
