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

backgroundCardiac involvement in Fabry disease is usually characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) without obstruction at rest. CASE SUMMARY: A 59-year-old female patient with progressive chest tightness misdiagnosed as having hypertrophic cardiomyopathy due to LVH with obstruction was finally diagnosed with Fabry disease. Echocardiography showed LVH with severe obstruction, "binary sign," papillary muscle hypertrophy, and depressed longitudinal strain in the basal inferolateral region. The patient felt chest tightness worsened 1 year after receiving enzyme replacement therapy. Percutaneous endocardial septal radiofrequency ablation was performed to relieve obstruction. DISCUSSION: It is rare for women with Fabry disease to present with severe symptoms, but it is possible. LVH with obstruction should not be a potential point of view to relax the vigilance of Fabry disease. Percutaneous endocardial septal radiofrequency ablation may help to relieve left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in Fabry disease. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Paying attention to echocardiographic characteristics is helpful for the identification of Fabry disease.
