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

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-both obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) and nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (nHCM) subtypes-is the most common monogenic cardiomyopathy. Its structural hallmarks are abnormal thickening of the myocardium and hyperdynamic contractility, while its hemodynamic consequences are left ventricular outflow tract or intracavitary obstruction (in oHCM) and diastolic dysfunction (in both oHCM and nHCM). Several medical therapies are routinely used to improve these abnormalities with the goal to decrease symptom burden in patients with HCM. Current guidelines recommend nonvasodilating beta blockers as first-line and nondihydropyridine calcium channel blockers followed by disopyramide as second- and third-line medical therapies for symptomatic oHCM and give weaker recommendations for beta blockers and calcium channel blockers in nHCM. These recommendations are based on small studies-mostly nonrandomized-and expert opinion. Our review will summarize the available data on the effectiveness of commonly prescribed medications used in oHCM and nHCM to uncover knowledge gaps, but also new data on cardiac myosin inhibitors.
