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

objectivesThis study aims to investigate the short-term effects of transapical beating-heart septal myectomy (TA-BSM) on left atrial (LA) anatomy and function and its association with clinical indicators in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM).

methodsA total of 105 HOCM patients who received TA-BSM were included. Clinical and comprehensive echocardiographic data were obtained before surgery, at discharge, and 3 months after myectomy. LA reverse remodelling was defined as LA maximum volume index (LAVI) ≤34 ml/m2 and a change of ≥10%.

resultsAt 3 months after TA-BSM, New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class and 6-min walking test were significantly improved, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) decreased, left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) peak gradient and mitral regurgitation were significantly reduced. LAVI decreased in 76%, with a median change of 20%, and the criteria for LA reverse remodelling were met in 48%. LA strain parameters were improved at 3 months after TA-BSM. Moreover, left ventricular (LV) diastolic function was significantly improved, but LV global longitudinal strain was not significantly changed at 3 months after operation. Improvement in LVOT peak gradient, LAVI, LA reservoir strain (LASr) and conduit strain (LAScd) were associated with reduction in NT-proBNP.

conclusionsAlong with effectively relieving the obstruction of the LVOT and mitral regurgitation, TA-BSM could significantly improve LA size and function during the short-term follow-up for HOCM patients. The indicators of LA reverse remodelling were associated with reduction in a biomarker of myocardial wall stress, indicating the early recovery of LV relaxation and clinical status for patients.
