Aortic stiffness is related to left ventricular diastolic function in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1: assessment with MRI and speckle tracking strain analysis.

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
Diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) is associated with aortic stiffening and left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction, however the relationship between aortic stiffness and LV diastolic dysfunction in DM1 patients is still largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether an increased aortic stiffness, expressed by increased aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV), is associated with subclinical LV diastolic dysfunction and decreased left atrial (LA) compliance as assessed with speckle tracking strain analysis in patients with DM1. Aortic PWV was assessed with cardiovascular magnetic resonance in 41 DM1 patients. Patients underwent echocardiography for assessment of conventional LV diastolic function indices and LV and LA longitudinal strain and strain rate (SR) assessed with speckle tracking strain analysis. LV SR during the isovolumic relaxation period (SRIVR) and LA strain were recorded and the E-wave velocity to SRIVR velocity ratio (E/SRIVR) was calculated. Independent samples t test and multivariate linear regression analyses were used for statistical analyses. Aortic PWV significantly correlated with SRIVR (β = -0.71, p < 0.001), E/SRIVR (β = 0.61, p = 0.002) and LA strain (β = -0.47, p = 0.014), but not with conventional echocardiographic markers of diastolic function (all p > 0.10). In DM1 patients, aortic stiffness is inversely associated with sensitive markers of LV diastolic function and decrease in LA compliance as measured with echocardiographic speckle tracking strain analysis.
