Epigenetic Study of Cohort of Monozygotic Twins With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Due to MYBPC3 (Cardiac Myosin-Binding Protein C).
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy is an autosomal dominant cardiac disease. The mechanisms that determine its variable expressivity are poorly understood. Epigenetics could play a crucial role in bridging the gap between genotype and phenotype by orchestrating the interplay between the environment and the genome regulation. In this study we aimed to establish a possible correlation between the peripheral blood DNA methylation patterns and left ventricular hypertrophy severity in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, evaluating the potential impact of lifestyle variables and providing a biological context to the observed changes. METHODS AND
resultsMethylation data were obtained from peripheral blood samples (Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip arrays). We employed multiple pair-matched models to extract genomic positions whose methylation correlates with the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy in 3 monozygotic twin pairs carrying the same founder pathogenic variant (
conclusionsWe present a unique pair-matched model, based on 3 monozygotic twin pairs carrying the same founder pathogenic variant and different phenotypes. This study provides further evidence of the pivotal role of epigenetics in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy variable expressivity.
