Assessment of right ventricular function by three-dimensional echocardiography and myocardial strain imaging in adult atrial septal defect before and after percutaneous closure.
Article in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Real-time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography allows us to measure right ventricular (RV) end-diastolic volume irrespective of its shape. Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) and speckle tracking imaging (STI) are new tools to assess myocardial function. We sought to evaluate RV function by 3D echocardiography and myocardial strain imaging in adult patients with atrial septal defect (ASD) before and 6 months after transcatheter closure in order to assess the utility of these new indexes in comparison with standard two-dimensional (2D) and Doppler parameters. Thirty-nine ASD patients and 39 healthy age- and sex-matched controls were studied using a commercially available cardiovascular ultrasound system. 2D-Doppler parameters of RV function (fractional area change, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, myocardial performance index) were calculated. 3D RV volumes were also obtained. RV peak-systolic velocities, peak-systolic strain, and peak systolic and diastolic strain-rate were measured in the basal, mid and apical segments of lateral and septal walls in apical 4-chamber view by TDI and STI. In open ASD, RV ejection fraction (3D-RVEF) and global and regional RV longitudinal strain were significantly higher than control group and decreased significantly after closure. By multivariate analysis 3D-RVEF, apical strain and strain rate were independent predictors of functional class. ROC analysis showed 3D-RVEF and apical strain to be more sensitive predictors of unfavorable outcome after defect closure compared to 2D-Doppler indexes. 3D echocardiography and myocardial strain imaging give useful insights in the quantitative assessment of RV function in ASD patients before and after closure.
