Left ventricular trabecular complexity for risk stratification of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction in breast cancer.
Article in MedComm, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The left ventricular trabecular fractal dimension (LVTFD) derived from cardiac magnetic resonance reflects myocardial trabecular complexity, which is associated with cardiovascular disease risk. Baseline risk stratification of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) in patients with breast cancer who received anthracycline is a very important clinical issue. In this study, we used the Cox model to derive and validate a new score system based on LVTFD for baseline risk stratification of CTRCD in breast cancer patients receiving anthracycline. We also compare the performance of LVTFD-based score with the Heart Failure Association-International Cardio-Oncology Society (HFA-ICOS) score using C-index. This study enrolled 370 participants, of whom 73 participants developed CTRCD. The C-indices of LVTFD-based score integrating age, hypertension, previous cardiovascular disease, and maximal apical fractal dimension were higher than those of HFA-ICOS score for stratifying CTRCD (0.834 vs. 0.642 and 0.834 vs. 0.633, respectively, in derivation and validation cohort). LVTFD-based score can stratify the CTRCD risk, but HFA-ICOS score cannot. The above results reveal that the LVTFD-based score is an alternative method for baseline risk stratification of CTRCD in breast cancer who received anthracycline.
