1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPersistence or development of Cornell product left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is associated with increased heart failure (HF) risk that is partly explained by greater LV systolic dysfunction. However, whether new or persistent Cornell product LVH during antihypertensive treatment is associated with worse LV diastolic function is unclear.

methodsLeft ventricular diastolic function was examined in relation to year-3 ECG LVH in 377 hypertensive patients with a preserved LV ejection fraction (>45%) at year-3. Cornell product >2440 mm·ms defined ECG LVH.

resultsIn multivariate models adjusting for age, sex, change from baseline to year-3 systolic blood pressure, and baseline and change from baseline to year-3 Sokolow-Lyon voltage, persistent or new Cornell product LVH at year-3 remained associated with year-3 abnormal half filling time (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.04-2.55 p = 0.034), with a trend toward higher odds of abnormal third filling time (OR 1.51, 95% CI 0.087 p = 0.087) and total filling time (OR 1.79, CI 0.98-3.27 p = 0.059).

conclusionIn hypertensive patients undergoing antihypertensive therapy, persistence or development of Cornell product ECG LVH at year-3 follow-up is modestly associated with LV diastolic dysfunction. These findings suggest that diastolic dysfunction may be a mechanism via which changing ECG LVH influences HF risk.
