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

objectiveTo evaluate the prognostic significance of right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and to assess its incremental value when incorporated into the established 5-year sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk prediction model. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included 320 patients with HCM who underwent CMR and echocardiography between 2007 and 2019. RVH was defined as a right ventricular wall thickness of ≥5 mm. The primary event was heart failure (HF) hospitalization. The secondary events were a composite of HF hospitalization, cardiovascular death, and heart transplantation. The prognostic role of RVH was assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, Cox proportional hazards regression, and model performance metrics, including time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for a 5-year follow-up and Harrell's C-index.

resultsAmong 320 patients (mean age 57.5 ± 12.8 years; 66.3% men), 65 (20.1%) had RVH. Over a median follow-up of 7.7 years, 28 (8.8%) patients experienced HF hospitalization, and 34 (10.6%) experienced composite adverse events. In multivariable Cox models, RVH was an independent predictor of both events: HF hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.23-8.28,

conclusionCMR-detected RVH independently predicts adverse events in patients with HCM. Incorporating RVH into a conventional risk model may enhance its predictive performance, supporting the importance of routine biventricular assessments in HCM evaluation.
