Echocardiography-guided percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation procedure for the treatment of Fabry disease: a case report.

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: This is a case report of a patient with Fabry disease (FD). We successfully treated a patient with ventricular septal hypertrophy and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction caused by FD. We report our exclusive new surgery for patients with LVOT obstruction, percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PIMSRA) procedure™ (percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation). The patient recovered well 7 months after operation, and no LVOT obstruction and arrhythmia occurred. Case summary: A 51-year-old woman with chest tightness after satiety for ∼10 years, aggravated for 2 months. The patient had a history of multiple syncope, syncope after activity or emotional excitement. Echocardiogram demonstrated ventricular septal thickness of 22 mm by the report. Genetic testing revealed gene mutation, which was consistent with FD (GLA: c.643A > C). Biochemical evaluation reported reduced serum α-galactosidase A activity and abnormal serum Lyso-GL-3 enzyme activity. The patient and her families decided to perform PIMSRA operation. After the operation, the septal thickness steadily decreased to 16 mm over the course of 7 months. However, the patient's symptoms improved significantly. Discussion: This is the first case of cardiac involvement caused by FD mimicking hypertrophic cardiomyopathy treated with the innovative PIMSRA procedure. Percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation procedure can be one of the effective treatments to alleviate cardiac hypertrophy and left ventricular obstruction in FD.
