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

Background: The clinical course of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is highly variable. Whether this heterogeneity reflects mutation-specific clinical trajectories remains a pivotal question for prognostication and personalized management. Objectives: This study aimed to determine if pathogenic sarcomeric variants in Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Four databases were searched up to October 2025 for cohort or registry studies reporting on sarcomeric variants and quantitative phenotypes in obstructive HCM. Data were extracted independently in duplicate, and effect estimates were pooled as odds ratios (OR), mean differences (MD), or hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: Ten studies comprising 192,361 participants were included, encompassing a large population sequencing cohort (UK Biobank/Mass General Brigham) of 184,511 and nine clinical/registry cohorts totaling 7,850. Carriers of Conclusions: This analysis confirms that obstructive HCM follows mutation-specific clinical trajectories. Genotype provides critical prognostic insights, delineating an
