Clinical Presentation and 6-Month Outcomes of Patients with Peripartum Cardiomyopathy in Indonesia.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Due to the rarity of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) globally, baseline characteristic data for PPCM patients are still scarce. Therefore, this study aims to determine the baseline characteristics and 6-month outcomes of PPCM patients in Indonesia. Methods: From January 2014 to December 2021, all PPCM patients aged ≥18 years who were admitted to Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in Bandung, Indonesia, participated in this single-center, prospective cohort study. All patients were re-evaluated within 6 months of PPCM diagnosis. Results: A total of 138 patients with PPCM were admitted to Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in Bandung. The mean age of all patients was 30.4 ± 6.4 years old. Approximately 60% patients were multipara and had preeclampsia. All guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure was received by most patients, excluding mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (25.2%) and bromocriptine (14.1%). The neonatal mortality rate was 5.1%. Among those who survived, 61.2% had normal weight, 31.8% had low birth weight, and 7% had very low birth weight. At the 6-month follow-up, 6.7% of the patients died, 63.3% recovered, and 1.9% were rehospitalized. Conclusion: The present study found a high incidence of PPCM in Indonesia. Our patients frequently had preeclampsia, which contributed to the higher rate of miscarriage and low birth weight. Our liberal use of beta-blockers and ACEi/ARB may have contributed to the higher 6-month recovery rate than that in other countries.
