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

Objective: This investigation aimed to investigate differences between dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) for tachycardia therapy-related outcomes as well as mortality during follow-up of at least 1 year. Methods: Seventy-eight patients with DCM (n = 42) and ICM (n = 36) with implantation or upgradation to CRT-D were included in this study and analyzed for incidence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT), non-sustained ventricular fibrillation (NSVF), defibrillator therapies, anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP), and mortality. Results: DCM was the underlying etiology in 42 (53.84%) and ICM in 36 (46.15%). Time to first therapy was numerically longer in DCM than in ICM (9.5 ± 2.4 vs. 7.1 ± 3.2; P-value = 0.088). DCM patients had significantly higher therapy-free survival and mortality compared with ICM patients (OR (95%CI): 0.238 (0.155-0.424); log-rank P = 0.017) and (OR (95% CI): 0.612 (0.254-0.924); log-rank P = 0.029). ICM (HR (95%CI): 0.529 (0.243-0.925); P-value = 0.014) CAD (HR (95%CI): 0.326 (0.122-0.691): P-value = 0.003), and NSVT (HR (95%CI): 0.703 (0.513-0.849): P-value = 0.005) were demonstrated as independent predictors of the primary endpoint of appropriate therapy in CRT-D and ICM (HR (95%CI): 0.421 (0.321-0.524); P-value = 0.037), chronic kidney disease (CKD; HR (95%CI): 0.289 (0.198-0.380); P-value = 0.013), and CAD (HR (95%CI): 0.786 (0.531-0.967); P-value = 0.003) were predictors of mortality. Conclusion: The clinical course of ICM and DCM cohorts who were treated with CRT-D differs significantly during follow-up, with increased tachycardia therapy and increased incidence of mortality in ICM patients.
