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

Wild-type transthyretin amyloid (ATTRwt) amyloidosis is a systemic, progressive disease that often affects older adults and is characterized by ATTRwt deposition in multiple organs and tissues. When the heart is involved, this deposition leads to cardiac amyloidosis (CA), which can result in life-threatening heart failure (HF) and arrhythmias. In general, as left ventricular (LV) wall thickening increases because of ATTRwt deposition, the LV cavity decreases in size. Additionally, as the disease progresses, the myocardial ATTR burden increases, and the LV ejection fraction (LVEF) decreases. Thus, at ATTRwt-CA diagnosis, the most common LV characteristics are a slightly reduced LV cavity and preserved or mildly reduced LVEF. We report the case of an 83-year-old man with HF with reduced EF (HFrEF) and ATTRwt-CA who had an LVEF of 22% and a dilated LV cavity with an end-diastolic diameter (EDD) of 58.0 mm and end-diastolic volume index (EDVI) of 86 mL/m
