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

purposePositron emission tomography (PET) with amyloid-binding tracers was shown to have high sensitivity for the detection of both transthyretin (ATTR) and light-chain (AL) cardiac amyloidosis (CA). Recent studies describe prognostic value of imaging biomarkers from bone scintigraphy and

methodsPatients who underwent cardiac

resultsTwenty-one patients with confirmed CA were enrolled. MACEs were reported in 14 of 21 patients (66.7%). Higher average RI was the only imaging biomarker that was a significant predictor for MACE in uni- and multivariate analysis (HR = 4.02, 95%CI: 1.25-12.9, p < 0.05). N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was a significant predictor in uni- but not in multivariate analysis. Patients with AL-CA showed a higher rate of MACE than patients with other subtypes.
