Systematic review of cardiac ventricular dysfunction in Wilson's disease: mechanisms, diagnostic advancements, and management strategies.

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
introductionWilson's disease (WD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by ATP7B gene mutations, leading to systemic copper accumulation. This systematic review examines the cardiac manifestations of WD and aims to summarize key diagnostic and therapeutic findings from available studies.
methodsWe conducted a systematic review of 21 studies using databases such as PubMed and Scopus. Studies were selected based on relevance to WD and cardiac involvement. Data extraction focused on diagnostic methods, outcomes, and treatments. Risk of bias and methodological quality were assessed qualitatively.
resultsA total of 21 studies were included. Cardiac complications included arrhythmias, myocardial fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction were identified as key pathological mechanisms. Cardiac MRI was highlighted as a valuable diagnostic tool. While chelation remains the cornerstone therapy, gene therapy and liver transplantation are considered for advanced cases.
conclusionsThis review underscores the importance of early cardiac assessment in WD patients. New diagnostic tools and emerging therapies show promise, though evidence remains limited by small sample sizes. Further longitudinal studies are needed to inform clinical guidelines.
