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

aimsAnterior mitral valve leaflet (AMVL) elongation is detectable in overt and subclinical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We sought to investigate the dynamic motion of the aorto-mitral apparatus to understand the behaviour of the AMVL and the mechanisms of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) predisposition in HCM. METHODS AND

resultsCardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging using a 1.5 Tesla scanner was performed on 36 HCM sarcomere gene mutation carriers without left ventricular hypertrophy (G+LVH-), 31 HCM patients with preserved ejection fraction carrying a pathogenic sarcomere gene mutation (G+LVH+), and 53 age-, sex-, and body surface area-matched healthy volunteers. Dynamic excursion of the aorto-mitral apparatus was assessed semi-automatically on breath-held three-chamber cine steady-state free precession images. Four pre-defined regions of interest (ROIs) were tracked: ROIPMVL: hinge point of the posterior mitral valve leaflet; ROITRIG: intertrigonal mitral annulus; ROIAMVL: AMVL tip; and ROIAAO: anterior aortic annulus. Compared with controls, normalized two-dimensional displacement-vs.-time plots in G+LVH- revealed subtle but significant systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the AMVL (P < 0.0001) and reduced longitudinal excursion of ROIAAO (P = 0.014) and ROIPMVL (P = 0.048). In overt and subclinical HCM, excursion of the ROITRIG/AMVL/PMVL was positively associated with the burden of left ventricular fibrosis (P < 0.028). As expected, SAM was observed in G+LVH+ together with reduced longitudinal excursion of ROITRIG (P = 0.049) and ROIAAO (P = 0.008).

conclusionDyskinesia of the aorto-mitral apparatus, including SAM of the elongated AMVL, is detectable in subclinical HCM before the development of LVH or left atrial enlargement. These data have the potential to improve our understanding of early phenotype development and LVOTO predisposition in HCM.
