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

A 65-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with heart failure secondary to aortic regurgitation and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). During surgery for valve-sparing aortic root replacement, a biopsy was obtained from the right atrium because of paroxysmal AF and mild left ventricular hypokinesis. A histopathological examination revealed atrial natriuretic peptide amyloidosis, and the patient was clinically diagnosed with isolated atrial amyloidosis (IAA). Although IAA is rarely diagnosed clinically, it should be considered in patients with AF and heart failure.
