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

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an infiltrative disease caused by amyloid fibril deposition in the myocardium; the 2 forms that most frequently involve the heart are amyloid light chain (AL) and amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis. Cardiac troponin (cTn) is the biomarker of choice for the detection of myocardial injury and is frequently found to be elevated in patients with CA, particularly with high-sensitivity assays. Multiple mechanisms of myocardial injury in CA have been proposed, including cytotoxic effect of amyloid precursors, interstitial amyloid fibril infiltration, coronary microvascular dysfunction, amyloid- and non-amyloid-related coronary artery disease, diastolic dysfunction, and heart failure. Regardless of the mechanisms, cTn values have relevant prognostic (and potentially diagnostic) implications in both AL and ATTR amyloidosis. In this review, the authors discuss the significant aspects of cTn biology and measurement methods, potential mechanisms of myocardial injury in CA, and the clinical application of cTn in the management of both AL and ATTR amyloidosis.
