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
aimTo evaluate the ability of fast strain-encoded (SENC) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) derived myocardial strain and native T1 mapping to discriminate between hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and cardiac amyloidosis.
methodsNinety nine patients (57 with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and 42 with cardiac amyloidosis) were systematically analysed. LV-ejection fraction, LV-mass index, septal wall thickness and native T1 mapping values were assessed. In addition, global circumferential and longitudinal strain and segmental circumferential and longitudinal strain in basal, mid-ventricular, and apical segments were calculated. A ratio was built by dividing native T1 values by basal segmental strain (T1-to-basal segmental strain ratio).
resultsMyocardial strain was equally distributed in apical and basal segments in HCM patients, whereas an apical sparing with less impaired apical strain was noticed in cardiac amyloidosis (apical-to-basal-ratio of 1.01 ± 0.23 versus 1.20 ± 0.28, p < 0.001). T1 values were significantly higher in amyloidosis compared to HCM patients (1170.7 ± 66.4 ms versus 1078.3 ± 57.4ms, p < 0.001). The T1-to-basal segmental strain ratio exhibited high accuracy for the differentiation between the two clinical entities (Sensitivity = 85%, Specificity = 77%, AUC = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.81-0.95, p < 0.001). Multivariable analysis showed that age and the T1-to-basal-strain-ratio were the most robust factors for the differentiation between HCM and cardiac amyloidosis.
conclusionThe T1-to-basal-segmental strain ratio, combining information from segmental circumferential and longitudinal strain and native T1 mapping aids the differentiation between HCM and cardiac amyloidosis with high accuracy and within a fast CMR protocol, obviating the need for contrast agent administration.
