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

Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) represents an inexorably progressive and fatal cardiomyopathy. Increased understanding of the underlying pathogenesis responsible for the misfolding of transthyretin and the subsequent accumulation of amyloid fibrils within the myocardium has led to the development of several disease-modifying therapies that act on different stages of the disease pathway. Tafamidis is the first, and to date remains the only, therapy approved for the treatment of ATTR-CA, which, alongside acoramidis, stabilizes the transthyretin tetramer, preventing disaggregation, misfolding and formation of amyloid fibrils. Gene-silencing agents, such as patisiran, vutrisian and eplontersen, and novel gene-editing therapies, such as NTLA-2001, act to reduce the hepatic synthesis of transthyretin. Anti-amyloid therapies represent another strategy in the treatment of ATTR-CA and are designed to bind amyloid fibril epitopes and stimulate macrophage-mediated removal of amyloid fibrils from the myocardium. Many of these treatments are at an early investigational stage but represent an important area of unmet clinical need and could potentially reverse disease and restore cardiac functions even in patients with advanced disease.
