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

Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) has been traditionally considered a rare and inexorably fatal condition. ATTR-CA now is an increasingly recognised cause of heart failure and mortality worldwide with effective pharmacological treatments. Advances in non-invasive diagnosis, coupled with the development of effective treatments, have transformed the diagnosis of ATTR-CA, which is now possible without recourse to endomyocardial biopsy in around 70% of cases. Many patients are now diagnosed at an earlier stage. Echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance have enabled identification of patients with possible ATTR-CA and more accurate prognostic stratification. Therapies able to slow or halt ATTR-CA progression and increase survival are now available and there is also evidence that patients may benefit from specific conventional heart failure medications. A wide horizon of possibilities is unfolding and awaits discovery.
