Isolated left ventricular apical hypoplasia: A case report.
Article in JRSM cardiovascular disease. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Isolated left ventricular apical hypoplasia (ILVAH) is a rare, unclassified cardiomyopathy with typical imaging findings. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is valuable for identifying heart structural anomalies. This case report describes the detection of significant anatomical abnormalities in the left ventricle (LV) with CMR in a 32-year-old man who presented with sudden dyspnea at authors' institution. This case demonstrates the characteristics of ILVAH under multimodal imaging: A truncated spherical shape of the LV, encircling of the distal LV by the right ventricle, the presence of fat replacement at the apex, and without abnormality in the mitral valve or aorta.
