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

objectivesHeart transplantation remains the last resort for patients with end-stage heart failure. The clinical and hemodynamic profiles of these patients may differ depending on the underlying etiology of cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to evaluate pre-transplant hemodynamic characteristics in patients with ischemic versus non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 170 adult patients who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation at a single center. Patients were categorized based on the etiology of heart failure as either ischemic or non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. Preoperative hemodynamic and echocardiographic parameters were compared between the groups.

resultsOf the 170 patients, 45.2% had ischemic cardiomyopathy. These patients were significantly older than those with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (53.2 vs. 46.7 years, P<0.01). However, no significant differences were observed between the two groups in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (17.9 ± 8.0 vs. 17.4 ± 9.5 mmHg), mean pulmonary artery pressure (29.4 ± 10.9 vs. 27.3 ± 12.6 mmHg), or left ventricular ejection fraction (21.4 ± 10.8% vs. 23.3 ± 12.5%).

conclusionWhile ischemic cardiomyopathy patients were older, their preoperative hemodynamic and echocardiographic profiles were closely similar to those with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.
