Monitoring left ventricular function in small animals.
Review in Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Small animals such as mice and rats are extensively used to investigate the mechanisms and treatment of human cardiac diseases in vivo. The monitoring of left ventricular function is a key factor in this research. The measurement should be rapid, reproducible, and repeatable and allow the detection of subtle differences in function. Currently, echocardiography is most widely used in cardiac research laboratories for measuring left ventricular dimensions and function in small animals. Although the technique is rapid, the reproducibility of the calculations of left ventricular volumes is limited in some circumstances as a result of assumptions that do not necessarily hold true, such as in the setting of dilated, failing ventricles.
