Left Ventricular Non-Compaction: Evolving Concepts.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare heart muscle disease defined by the presence of prominent left ventricular trabeculation, deep intertrabecular recesses, and a thin compact layer. Several hypotheses have been proposed regarding its pathogenesis, with the most recently accepted one being that compact layer and trabeculated layers develop independently according to an "allometric growth". The current gold-standard diagnostic criteria (in particular, the Petersen index non-compaction/compaction ratio > 2.3) reflect an excess of myocardial trabeculation, which is not a specific morpho-functional feature of LVNC cardiomyopathy but merely a "phenotypic trait", even described in association with other myocardial disease and over-loading conditions. Accordingly, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines have definitively abolished the term 'LVNC cardiomyopathy'. Recently, evolving perspectives led to the restoration of LVNC cardiomyopathy by distinguishing "hypertrabeculation phenotype" and "non-compaction phenotype". It has been proposed that the disease-specific pathophysiologic mechanism is a congenitally underdevelopment of the compact layer accounting for an impairment of the left ventricular systolic function. Future prospective research should focus on the clinical and prognostic relevance of compact layer thinning rather than excessive trabeculation, which could significantly influence the management of patients with LVNC. The review aims to update current knowledge on the pathogenesis, genetics, and diagnostic criteria of LVNC, offering modern insights for future perspectives.
