Differentiating Cardiac Troponin Levels During Cardiac Myosin Inhibition or Cardiac Myosin Activation Treatments: Drug Effect or the Canary in the Coal Mine?
Review in Current heart failure reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose of reviewCardiac myosin inhibitors (CMIs) and activators are emerging therapies for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), respectively. However, their effects on cardiac troponin levels, a biomarker of myocardial injury, are incompletely understood. RECENT
findingsIn patients with HCM, CMIs cause substantial reductions in cardiac troponin levels which are reversible after stopping treatment. In patients with HFrEF, cardiac myosin activator (omecamtiv mecarbil) therapy cause modest increases in cardiac troponin levels which are reversible following treatment cessation and not associated with myocardial ischaemia or infarction. Transient changes in cardiac troponin levels might reflect alterations in cardiac contractility and mechanical stress. Such transient changes might not indicate cardiac injury and do not appear to be associated with adverse outcomes in the short to intermediate term. Longitudinal changes in troponin levels vary depending on the population and treatment. Further research is needed to elucidate mechanisms underlying changes in troponin levels.
