Assessing Quality of Life in Genetic Cardiomyopathies: A Scoping Review.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 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
Genetic cardiomyopathies (GCMs) are chronic heart muscle disorders requiring lifelong monitoring and treatment. Although quality of life (QoL) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are increasingly recognized as important outcomes in cardiomyopathy care, their conceptualization and measurement remain inconsistent. This scoping review aims to (a) identify the tools most commonly used to assess QoL and HRQoL in adults with genetic cardiomyopathies and (b) map the thematic areas of existing studies, including symptom burden, psychological distress, diagnostic challenges, and the impact of medical and psychological interventions. PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO were systematically searched, and the final search was completed in November 2025. Seventeen peer-reviewed studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in this scoping review. The review followed the PRISMA extension for Scoping Reviews and included both quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods designs. Most studies employed standardized tools such as
