Right ventricular ejection fraction measurements using two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography by applying an ellipsoid model.
Article in Cardiovascular ultrasound, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03935178 (A Single-Center, Blinded, Randomized Control Trial Evaluating Different Approaches to Evaluation of Right Ventricular Size and Function Using the Upper Valley Right Ventricle Algorithm and Novel Imaging Modalities), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
backgroundThere is today no established approach to estimate right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) using 2D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). The aim of this study was to evaluate a new method for RVEF calculations using 2D TTE and compare the results with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE).
methodsA total of 37 subjects, 25 retrospectively included patients and twelve healthy volunteers, were included to give a wide range of RVEF. The right ventricle (RV) was modeled as a part of an ellipsoid enabling calculation of the RV volume by combining three distance measurements. RVEF calculated according to the model, RVEF
resultsThe mean values were RVEF
conclusionsThe ellipsoid model shows promise for RVEF calculations using 2D TTE for a wide range of RVEF, providing RVEF estimates that were significantly better correlated to RVEF obtained from CMR compared to TAPSE.
