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

backgroundArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited disorder characterized by fibrofatty replacement of the right ventricular myocardium. Anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity typically manifests as left ventricular dysfunction; however, we present a unique case of an acquired ARVC phenotype secondary to anthracycline chemotherapy exposure. CASE SUMMARY: A 74-year-old man developed recurrent exertional syncope 8 months after completing rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin (an anthracycline that is also known as doxorubicin), oncovin, and prednisone chemotherapy. He met 3 major 2010 Revised Task Force Criteria for definite ARVC, despite negative genetic testing and absence of family history. He underwent dual-chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation with complete resolution of syncopal episodes. DISCUSSION: Recognition of acquired ARVC after anthracycline exposure broadens the spectrum of chemotherapy-related cardiomyopathies and calls for vigilance in patients with unexplained right ventricular dysfunction or arrhythmias after chemotherapy. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Anthracyclines may cause isolated right ventricular dysfunction mimicking ARVC. Clinicians should maintain vigilance for right ventricular dysfunction or arrhythmias in patients after anthracycline therapy.
