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

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic form of heart failure that affects 1 in 5,000 people globally and is caused by mutations in cardiac desmosomal genes including PKP2, DSP, and DSG2. Individuals with ACM suffer from ventricular arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death, and heart failure. There are few effective treatments and heart transplantation remains the best option for many affected individuals. Here we performed single nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics on myocardial samples from patients with ACM and control donors. We identified disease-associated spatial niches characterized by coexistence of fibrotic and inflammatory cell types and failing cardiac myocytes. The inflammatory-fibrotic niche colocalized to areas of cardiac myocyte loss and comprised FAP (fibroblast activation protein) and POSTN (periostin) expressing fibroblasts, macrophages that expressed NLRP3, and nuclear factor κB activated genes. Using homozygous Dsg2 mutant (Dsg2
