Age-Dependent Role of Genetics and Renal Function for Atrial Fibrillation Development in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Korean circulation journal, 2025. 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThe objective of this study was to investigate whether genetic, structural, and clinical factors were associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
methodsOf the 212 prospectively enrolled patients in the HCM genetic registry, 33 had initial AF, and the remaining 179 (126 males, 58±13 years) were followed up for the development of new-onset AF.
resultsPatients with initial AF had older age, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), lower left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain, higher left atrial volume index (LAVI), and higher LV extracellular volume fraction. During a median follow-up period of 916 (400-1,327) days, AF occurred in 12 (6.7%) patients. In Cox regression analysis, lower eGFR (hazard ratio per 1 mL/min/1.73 m² increase, 0.93; p=0.007), LV ejection fraction (hazard ratio, 0.82; p=0.009), and higher LAVI (hazard ratio, 1.07; p=0.010) were associated with increased risk of future AF. The addition of eGFR to LAVI significantly increased the global χ² value (8.508 to 15.017; p=0.006). Among patients younger than 65 years (n=128), those with any sarcomere variants (pathogenic and variants of uncertain significance [VUS], n=77) had a higher prevalence of overall AF (initial and new-onset, 82.4% vs. 56.8%; p=0.045).
conclusionsIn patients with HCM, decreased renal function provides an additive predictive value on LAVI for future AF. In patients younger than 65, the presence of sarcomere variants, including VUS, is related to a higher prevalence of AF.
