Mitral Annular Plane Systolic Excursion and Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion in Cats with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
backgroundLeft ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction is associated with increased risk of death in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Mitral and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE and TAPSE, respectively) are measures of longitudinal systolic function and are reduced in human patients with HCM. HYPOTHESES: Cats with HCM have lower MAPSE and TAPSE compared to control cats; lower MAPSE and TAPSE are associated with the presence of congestive heart failure (CHF) and reduced survival time. ANIMALS: 64 cats with HCM and 27 healthy cats. Forty-five cats with HCM were not showing clinical signs, and 19 had CHF.
methodsRetrospective study. Anatomic M-mode from the left apical 4-chamber view was used to record MAPSE from the free wall (MAPSE FW) and septum (MAPSE IVS) and TAPSE.
resultsCompared to controls, cats with HCM had lower MAPSE IVS (controls 5.2 [4.6-5.6] mm, asymptomatic HCM 4.7 [4.1-5.2] mm, HCM with CHF 2.6 [2.5-3.2] mm, P < .001), MAPSE FW (controls 5.9 [5.3-6.2] mm, asymptomatic HCM 4.7 [4.1-5.1] mm, HCM with CHF 2.8 [2.4-3.2] mm) and TAPSE (controls 8.6 [7.4-10.2] mm, asymptomatic HCM 7.2 [6.3-8.2] mm, HCM with CHF 4.6 [4.1-5.4] mm), with the lowest in the CHF group. Univariate survival analysis showed a shorter survival in cats displaying lower MAPSE IVS, MAPSE FW, and TAPSE. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: MAPSE and TAPSE were lower in cats with HCM than in control cats and were lowest in CHF, suggesting that systolic longitudinal dysfunction is present in cats with HCM. MAPSE and TAPSE have potential prognostic significance.
