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

backgroundDiagnostic rates of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis have increased due to growing awareness, noninvasive diagnoses, and treatments that improve morbidity and mortality. We sought to investigate real-world trends in baseline characteristics and survival in the United States.

methodsPatient-level data at 5 cardiac amyloid referral centers were used, and mortality (defined as death or surgical heart failure therapies) was compared by eras (pre-2010, 2010-2013, 2014-2017, and 2018-2021) and National Amyloidosis Center (NAC) stage.

resultsAmong 1165 subjects, diagnosis of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis in a more recent era was associated with older age, white race, wild-type disease, and tafamidis treatment (

conclusionsIn this multicenter study of patients seen at referral centers for transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis, diagnosis in a more recent era was associated with improved survival, while tafamidis benefits were attenuated by disease severity and older age. Significant residual mortality risk remains in treated patients at higher disease stages.
