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

backgroundApical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (ApHCM) is a variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with distinct clinical characteristics and outcomes. We aimed to clarify the natural history of patients with ApHCM and identify the risk of end-stage heart failure incidence. METHODS AND

resultsThis retrospective study was conducted on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in China between January 2009 and February 2024. Patients were stratified into ApHCM and non-ApHCM groups. The primary outcome was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events, including all-cause deaths, heart failure hospitalization, sudden cardiac death, and ventricular tachycardia. The secondary outcome was the incidence of end-stage heart failure, defined as left ventricular ejection fraction <50%. Kaplan-Meier and univariable and multivariable Cox proportional analyses were applied. Adjustment variables were included for important baseline characteristics, comorbidities, and medication use. Of 5653 patients enrolled with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, 584 (10.3%) had ApHCM and 5069 (89.7%) had non-ApHCM. During the median follow-up period of 4.6 years (1.6-8.0 years), major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in 32.2% (n=1808), with a lower incidence in patients with ApHCM than non-ApHCM (20.4% versus 33.3%,

conclusionsApHCM is relatively common in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and shows lower rates of all-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalizations than non-ApHCM.
