Prevalence, Clinical Manifestations, and Adverse Outcomes of Left Ventricular Noncompaction in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Cardiology research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Background: Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is recognized within the spectrum of adult cardiomyopathies for its unique pathophysiologic features and clinical challenges. This condition exhibits a wide range of clinical manifestations, from asymptomatic states to severe cardiovascular complications, making its diagnosis and management challenging. This study aimed to synthesize current data on the prevalence, diagnostic methods, clinical outcomes, and treatment efficacy of LVNC in adults to address gaps in understanding and management strategies. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of research from 2000 to March 2024 was conducted, focusing on studies involving adults diagnosed with LVNC. This approach aimed to collect data on the prevalence of LVNC, the diagnostic accuracy of different imaging modalities, clinical manifestations, and the impact of different treatment strategies. Results: The study showed a prevalence of LVNC of 0.5%, with cardiovascular magnetic resonance outperforming echocardiography in diagnosis with a detection rate of 1.3%. Mortality and heart transplantation rates were 12% and 7%, respectively. Significant predictors of adverse outcomes included New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV, ventricular tachycardia, and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), guiding a nuanced approach in tailoring therapeutic strategies to optimize patient care and outcomes. Conclusions: This study advances the understanding of LVNC by refining diagnostic criteria and evaluating management strategies, highlighting the superiority of cardiovascular magnetic resonance. It identifies predictors of adverse outcomes and assesses treatment efficacy, urging precision in diagnosis and tailored treatments. Its comprehensive analysis and methodological rigor make it a key resource advocating a multidisciplinary approach to improve patient outcomes in LVNC.
