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

backgroundA significant proportion of cardiomyopathy patients remain genetically unsolved. Our aim was to use the large genomes cohort of the 100,000 genomes project (100KGP) to explore the proportion of potentially causal mitochondrial (mtDNA) variants in cardiomyopathy patients, particularly in genotype-elusive participants. The homoplasmic MT-TI 4300A>G is unusual in that it typically presents with a cardiac-only phenotype, but MT-TI is currently not part of the genes analysed for non-syndromic cardiomyopathies.

resultsWe analysed 1363 cardiomyopathy genomes from the 100KGP project (of which only 172 had been previously solved) to detect disease causing mtDNA variants. MitoHPC was used to call variants. For controls, 1329 random subjects not recruited for a cardiomyopathy diagnosis and not related to any participant in the cardiomyopathy cohort were selected. We have additionally compared the frequency of detected variants with published UK Biobank data. Pathogenicity annotations were assigned based on MitoMap. Four patients, all with a diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and without a previously identified genetic cause from the 100KGP clinical-standard analysis, were found to harbour the pathogenic MT-TI m.4300A>G variant (0.6% of HCM cases without a diagnosis).

conclusionThese data support the inclusion of MT-TI in the initial genetic testing panel for (non-syndromic) HCM.
