Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.

What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04654988). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Medical University of Warsaw. Recruitment status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING. Phase: PHASE4. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 100 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Myocarditis, Heart Failure, Endomyocardial Biopsy, Cardiomyopathies, Secondary, Immunosuppression. Interventions: DRUG: Prednisone; DRUG: Azathioprine; DRUG: Placebo Prednisone; DRUG: Placebo Azathioprine. Primary outcome measures: LVEF at 12 - months. , 12- months. Brief summary: Myocarditis can result in numerous complications, but there is paucity of data regarding optimal therapy, short- and long-term effects of possibly effective immunosuppressive therapy. The IMPROVE-MC study will provide high-quality scientific data about efficacy and safety of immunosuppressive therapy, non-invasive (MRI, biomarkers) and invasive diagnostics tests (endomyocardial biopsy), and prognosis in myocarditis. The objective of this multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 - month treatment with prednisone and azathioprine comparing to placebo on top of guideline-recommended medical therapy in patients with biopsy-proven virus negative myocarditis or inflammatory cardiomyopathy and reduced ejection fraction (LVEF ≤ 45%). The study will also assess persistence of the treatment effects after 12 months.
