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

backgroundLate gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging indicates myocardial scarring and has prognostic value in myocarditis. The Pan-Immune-Inflammation Value (PIV) is a novel biomarker reflecting systemic inflammation; however, its association with LGE in myocarditis remains uninvestigated. This study aims to evaluate whether PIV levels can predict the presence of LGE in patients with myocarditis.

aimsWe retrospectively analyzed 141 patients with myocarditis between 2021 and 2024. PIV, troponin levels, and other inflammatory markers were analyzed for their association with LGE.

resultsLGE was observed in 68.8% of the patients, with a higher proportion of males in the LGE+ group. The LGE+ group showed significantly elevated levels of PIV (1.661.2 ± 22.269) and troponin (786.2 ± 10.711 ng/L) compared to the LGE- group. Multivariate regression analysis confirmed PIV (OR: 1.002,

conclusionsOur findings indicate that elevated PIV levels are significant predictors of LGE, suggesting that PIV may serve as a valuable tool in assessing risk and guiding follow-up strategies for patients with myocarditis.
