Cardiac evaluation of patients with juvenile dermatomyositis.

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
backgroundThe present study aims to evaluate possible cardiac involvement in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) patients by conventional methods and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) along with a systematic review of the literature on cardiac features in JDM.
methodsThe study group consisted of JDM patients who underwent cardiac MRI. We conducted a systematic review of the published literature involving JDM patients with cardiac involvement.
resultsIn the present study, although baseline cardiologic evaluations including electrocardiography and echocardiography were within normal limits, we showed late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac MRI in 3 of 11 JDM patients. In the literature review, we identified 25 articles related to cardiac involvement in JDM. However, none of them, except one case report, included cardiac MRI of JDM patients.
conclusionCardiac abnormalities have been reported among the less frequent findings in patients with JDM. Cardiovascular complications during the long-term disease course are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in these patients. Early detection of cardiac involvement by cardiac MRI in patients with JDM and aggressive treatment of them may improve the clinical course of these patients. IMPACT: The myocardium in patients with JDM may be involved by inflammation. Myocardial involvement may be evaluated by using contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI. This is the first study evaluating cardiac involvement by cardiac MRI in JDM patients. MRI may show early cardiac involvement in patients whose baseline cardiologic evaluations are within normal limits. Early detection of cardiac involvement by cardiac MRI may improve the long-term prognosis of patients with JDM.
