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

backgroundDiagnosis of hereditary amyloid transthyretin (hATTR) amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy is frequently delayed, in large part because of symptom overlap with other cardiovascular diseases and limited provider knowledge of this disease. The sponsored and provider referred hATTR Compass Genetic Testing Program (Ionis, Carlsbad, CA; Ambry Genetics, Aliso Viejo, CA) provided no-cost genetic testing to adults with a family history or clinical suspicion of hATTR amyloidosis. This study aims to characterize patients with hATTR amyloidosis and increase awareness of genetic testing for hATTR. METHODS AND

resultsPatients were referred to the hATTR genetic testing program, and a cross-sectional post hoc analysis was performed. A pathogenic
