Effect of Cardiac Myosin Inhibitors on Echocardiographic Features of Cardiac Structure and Function in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Recent advancements have introduced novel cardiac myosin inhibitors (CMIs) that have demonstrated significant efficacy in treating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This meta-analysis aimed to clarify the current understanding of the impact of CMIs on echocardiographic cardiac structure and function in patients with HCM. Methods: A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases was conducted from inception until September 14, 2025. The studies reporting the impact of CMIs on echocardiographic cardiac structure and function in HCM patients were included. Results: Ultimately, this meta-analysis included 10 studies: five randomized controlled trials (RCTs), three echocardiographic sub-studies derived from RCTs, and two long-term cohort studies. A total of 938 patients were enrolled in these studies. This meta-analysis revealed that CMIs significantly reduce interventricular septum thickness (mean difference (MD): -1.77, 95% confidence interval (CI): -3.30 to -0.23; Conclusions: CMIs have shown great efficacy in improving left ventricular structure and diastolic function in HCM patients. Additionally, CMIs can reduce left ventricular ejection fraction. However, the impact of CMIs on the risk of atrial arrhythmias remains unclear.
