Patient Perspectives on Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) Treatment Attributes.
Article in Cardiology and therapy, 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
introductionTransthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), a progressive disease characterized by the accumulation of misfolded transthyretin amyloid proteins in the myocardium, often leads to heart failure. The experiences and treatment priorities of individuals living with ATTR-CM have not been evaluated in depth.
methodsThis multinational patient advisory board qualitatively explored patients' experiences with ATTR-CM and their preferences for the attributes of current and emerging treatments for heart failure caused by ATTR-CM. In a pre-advisory board survey, participants answered benefit-risk scaling questions to gauge the importance of treatment side effects, treatment benefits, and modes of administration. The results of the survey were then discussed during the advisory board.
resultsOf the 13 participants who completed the survey (two in Australia, two in Canada, one in Switzerland, four in the United Kingdom, and four in the United States), 11 participated in the advisory board discussion and two in follow-up discussions. The survey results and advisory board discussion revealed tiredness and fatigue to be the most bothersome and injection site pain to be the least bothersome of the side effects evaluated. Lowering the risk of death was the most important and being able to easily take a bath or a shower was the least important of the treatment benefits evaluated. On average, once-daily oral administration was the most preferred mode of administration tested, over twice-daily oral administration, subcutaneous injection, and infusion, although participants' preferences were heterogeneous. Although the length of life was important, quality of life was also important to participants: they especially valued spending time doing the activities they enjoyed and prioritized these activities over basic functioning and self-care routines.
conclusionsIndividuals living with ATTR-CM have heterogeneous preferences. As the ATTR-CM treatment landscape expands to include treatments with distinct attributes, patients and care teams should participate in shared decision-making to prioritize patients' preferences and goals.
