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

Cardiac involvement is a major feature of RASopathies, a group of phenotypically overlapping syndromes caused by germline mutations in genes encoding components of the RAS/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) signaling pathway. In particular, Noonan syndrome (NS) is associated with a wide spectrum of cardiac pathologies ranging from congenital heart disease (CHD), present in approximately 80% of patients, to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), observed in approximately 20% of patients. Genotype-cardiac phenotype correlations are frequently described, and they are useful indicators in predicting the prognosis concerning cardiac disease over the lifetime. The aim of this review is to clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of cardiac diseases associated particularly with NS, and to discuss the main morphological and clinical characteristics of the two most frequent cardiac disorders, namely pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS) and HCM. We will also report the genotype-phenotype correlation and its implications for prognosis and treatment. Knowing the molecular mechanisms responsible for the genotype-phenotype correlation is key to developing possible targeted therapies. We will briefly address the first experiences of targeted HCM treatment using RAS/MAPK pathway inhibitors.
