Dyssynchronization reduces dynamic obstruction without affecting systolic function in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: a pilot study.

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
Dyssynchrony from biventricular pacing (BiV) can reduce dynamic obstruction in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), but its consequences on the left ventricular (LV) systolic function are unknown. We evaluate changes in LV systolic function and assess the effectiveness of BiV in HOCM. Thirteen patients with HOCM (55 [33/75] years, five males) received a BiV device and underwent 2D transthoracic echocardiography before the implantation and at 12 months follow-up. Global longitudinal and radial strain, and the timing of segmental displacement curves were measured by commercial speckle-tracking software to assess LV systolic function and dyssynchrony. Peak gradient in the LV outflow tract (LVOT) significantly decreased from 80 [51/100] to 30 [5/66] mmHg (p = 0.005). LV global strain was preserved from baseline to follow-up: 35.1 [20.2/43.8] % vs. 32.6 [27.1/44.1] %, p = NS (radial), and -16.6 [-19.1/-14.4] % vs. -15.7 [-17.0/-14.2] %, p = NS (longitudinal). Dyssynchrony analysis using displacement curves showed inversion of wall motion timing with earlier displacement of the lateral wall at follow-up only in patients with reduction in LVOT gradient. BiV reduces LVOT obstruction in patients with HOCM when dyssynchronization of LV motion and inversion of the timing of LV wall activation are reached. Notably, this does not lead to further deterioration of LV systolic function at mid-term follow-up.
