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

Cardiomyopathies (CMs), one of the main causes of sudden death among the young population, are a heterogeneous group of myocardial diseases, usually with a genetic cause. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has expanded the genes studied for CMs; however, the yield is still around 50%. The systematic study of Copy Number Variants (CNVs) could contribute to improving our diagnostic capacity. These alterations have already been described as responsible for cardiomyopathies in some cases; however, their impact has been rarely assessed. We analyzed the clinical significance of CNVs in cardiomyopathies by studying 11,647 affected patients, many more than those considered in previously published studies. We evaluated the yield of the systematic study of CNVs in a production context using NGS and a novel CNV detection software tool v2.0 that has demonstrated great efficacy, maximizing sensitivity and avoiding false positives. We obtained a CNV analysis yield of 0.8% that fluctuated depending on the type of cardiomyopathy studied (0.29% HCM, 1.41% DCM, 1.88% ARVC, 1.8% LVNC, 1.45% RCM), and we present the frequency of occurrence for 18 genes that agglutinate the 95 pathogenic/likely pathogenic CNVs detected. We conclude the importance of including in diagnostic tests a systematic study of these genetic alterations for the different cardiomyopathies.
