Evaluating the Utility of a New Pathogenicity Predictor for Pediatric Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Human mutation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Pediatric cardiomyopathy (CM) has significant childhood morbidity and mortality which is caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Previous research has focused on identifying genetic variants in pediatric CM for diagnostic purposes, but not for risk stratification. The current study was modeled after previous work which showed an association between CardioBoost-classified disease-causing variants and an increased risk for severe clinical outcomes in adults with CM to assess if the same association is true in pediatric CM. This was a retrospective, single-center cohort study that evaluated outcomes in pediatric CM patients who were evaluated by the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). CardioBoost (CB) scores were generated for these patients, and scores were categorized as ≤0.1, 0.1-0.9, and ≥0.9. Composite endpoint was freedom from a major adverse cardiac event (MACE). 104 patients were included in the final analysis. 32 (31%) had DCM, 45 (43%) had HCM, and 27 (26%) had other CM. There was no significant association between CB score and clinical outcome in pediatric CM patients. Overall, this study highlights the continued deficits in variant interpretation for pediatric CM. We recommend using caution when applying this tool to stratify clinical outcomes in the pediatric population.
