Mitral annular plane systolic excursion in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in obese adults.

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
objectiveMitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) is a simple way to assess left ventricle (LV) function. MAPSE is also correlated to parameters, illustrating the close relation between systolic and diastolic function of LV. In this study, we evaluated whether MAPSE could help us in the determination the LV diastolic dysfunction (DD) in obese adults.
methodsOur study was a prospective cross-sectional study. Obese patients who were referred from the endocrinology clinic were enrolled into this study. The participants included 40 obese patients with early-stage DD (grade I and II) and 40 obese patients with normal diastolic function, with an equal number of males and females. The patients with DD were further divided into Obese DD+I, who had grade I DD, and Obese DD+II, who had grade II DD. Student t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, one-way analysis of variance, ROC curve analysis, and pairwise comparisons of the ROC curves were used for statistical analysis.
resultsMAPSE was different in all groups, with the lowest value in the Obese DD+II group (p<0.001). E/Em ratio was also different among all groups and was highest in the Obese DD+II group (p<0.001). Furthermore, MAPSE was negatively correlated with E/Em ratio (r=-0.368, p=0.020). The optimal threshold point of MAPSE in the diagnosis of left ventricle diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) was ≤1.45 cm, with 92.5% sensitivity (95% CI 79.6-98.4) and 77.5% specificity (95% CI 61.5-89.2) in the ROC curve analysis. There was no difference in the pairwise comparisons of the ROC curves of MAPSE and E/Em ratio in the diagnosis of DD [area under the ROC curve 0.902 (0.033) vs. 0.927 (0.027); p=0.54].
conclusionConsequently, we found significantly a close relationship between MAPSE with conventional echocardiographic parameters, especially with E/Em, in the detection of left ventricle diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in obese adults with normal LV ejection fraction. We think that MAPSE is a simple, easily acquired and less time consuming measurement and may help us in the stratification of LVDD in obese adults.
