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

backgroundEarly identification of cardiotoxicity of chemotherapy is crucial. Gene expression is considered a promising tool.

aimTo validate the new speckle tracking values, high-sensitive (Hs) troponin and expression of TNNI3K and RyR2 genes for early detection of cardiotoxicity.

methodsFifty patients with cancer breast on Anthracycline chemotherapy were subjected to speckle tracking echocardiography and Hs troponin measurement. Relative expression of TNNI3K and RyR2 genes were determined by RT-PCR.

resultsFifty female patients with age (43.89 ± 6.4) were included. Fourteen patients (28%) developed cardiotoxicity, diagnosed by decrease GLS > 15%. Compared to GLS, Hs-Troponin has sensitivity 73%, specificity 100%, PPV 78.5% and NPV 100%. Cutoff point of GLS > 10% had sensitivity 95%, specificity 78%, PPV 81% and NPV 84%. Using a cutoff of 24% change in TNNI3K Expression; sensitivity 100%, specificity 74%, PPV 79.5% and NPV 100%. Using a cutoff of 25% in RYR-2 expression; sensitivity 67% and specificity 59% with less PPV and NPV (62% and 64%). Adding GLS change >10% to Hs troponin and TNNI3K expression resulted in highest sensitivity (100%) and specificity (95.5%) with 96% PPV and 100% NPV.

conclusionCutoff point of GLS > 10%, Hs-Troponin and TNNI3K gene expression are reliable test for early detection of cardiotoxicity. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER (IRB): 042024100222.
