The consistency of myocardial strain derived from heart deformation 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
The purpose of this study was to assess the consistency of semi-automated myocardial strain analysis by prototype software across field strengths, temporal resolutions, and examinations. 35 volunteers (48 ± 13 years; 20% women) and 25 patients (54 ± 12 years; 44% women) without significant cardiac dysfunction underwent cine cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) at 1.5 T with a temporal resolution of 39.2 msec. 34 subjects also underwent imaging at 3.0 T; 16 had repeat examinations within 14 days; and 9 underwent CMR with temporal resolutions of 12.5 and 39.2 msec on the same day. Prototype heart deformation analysis (HDA) software was used to retrospectively quantify strain from segmented balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) cinegraphic images. Myocardial contours were automatically generated on short axis images and drawn at end-diastole by two independent reviewers on long-axis images. Contours were automatically propagated throughout the cardiac cycle. Global and regional peak systolic strain were compared across observers, field strengths, temporal resolutions, and examinations. Inter-observer agreement was excellent (ICC > 0.87, p < 0.01). Inter-examination variability was low, ranging from 1.7 (1.0-2.4)% to 2.5 (1.9-3.1)%, except for radial strain: 9.2 (7.6-10.5)%. Most global and regional strain values were not significantly different across field strengths and temporal resolutions (p > 0.05). Normal global peak systolic strain values with HDA were -25.0 (-24.0 to -26.1)% (LV circumferential), 60.5 (55.3 to 65.6)% (LV radial), -22.3 (-20.5 to - 24.0)% (LV longitudinal), and -26.0 (-23.8 to -28.2)% (RV longitudinal). HDA prototype software enabled efficient and consistent quantification of myocardial strain from conventional bSSFP cine CMR data, demonstrating clinical feasibility.
