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

backgroundBlack women with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) have a higher prevalence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and worse clinical outcomes compared with non-Black women. We examined the impact of HDP on myocardial recovery in Black women with PPCM.

methodsA total of 100 women were enrolled into the Investigation in Pregnancy Associated Cardiomyopathy (IPAC) study. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was assessed by echocardiography at entry, 6, and 12-months post-partum (PP). Women were followed for 12 months postpartum and outcomes including persistent cardiomyopathy (LVEF ≤35%), left ventricular assist device, (LVAD), cardiac transplantation, or death were examined in subsets based on race and the presence of HDP.

resultsBlack women with HDP were more likely to present earlier compared to Black women without HDP (days PP HDP: 34 ± 21 vs 54 ± 27 days, P = .03). There was no difference in LVEF at study entry for Black women based on HDP, but better recovery with HDP at 6 (HDP: 52 ± 11% vs no HDP: 40 ± 14%, P = .03) and 12-months (HDP:53 ± 10% vs no HDP:40 ± 16%, P = .02). At 12-months, Black women overall had a lower LVEF than non-Black women (P < .001), driven by less recovery in Black women without HDP compared to non-Black women (P < .001). In contrast, Black women with HDP had a similar LVEF at 12 months compared to non-Black women (P = .56).

conclusionsIn women with PPCM, poorer outcomes evident in Black women were driven by women without a history of HDP. In Black women, a history of HDP was associated with earlier presentation and recovery which was comparable to non-Black women.
