Prevalence of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis in patients with aortic stenosis.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTransthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTRCA) is a prevalent disease, and it can be associated with heart failure (HF), left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH), atrial fibrillation (AF), and aortic stenosis (AS).
aimThe study aims to detect the prevalence of ATTRCA in the symptomatic AS population.
methodA single-center prospective study screening for ATTRCA in patients diagnosed with symptomatic severe AS undergoing aortic valve (AV) intervention.
resultsA total of 27 patients were enrolled, of which 15 (56%) were men. The mean age was 72.8 ± 10.5 years. HF symptoms were present in 11 (40.7%) patients at New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II, while 15 (55.6%) patients had NYHA class III symptoms. AF was present in 6 (22.2%) patients. The mean left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) was 49.4 ± 9.75%, and the mean stroke volume (SV) was 37.4 ± 8.7 ml/m
conclusionATTRCA is prevalent in AS patients; bone scintigraphy is recommended for screening AS patients for ATTRCA.
