Early Speckle-tracking Echocardiography Predicts Left Ventricle Remodeling after Acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular echography. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPrediction of the left ventricular remodeling (LVR) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients treated with effective myocardial reperfusion is challenging.
methodsForty-one consecutive patients (36 males, age 59 ± 10 years) with STEMI who underwent effective (TIMI III) primary coronary angioplasty were enrolled. All patients had an echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) study within 72 h from revascularization. Three echocardiographic parameters including LV ejection fraction (EF), global longitudinal strain (GLS) and severe altered longitudinal strain (SAS) area by two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) and 3 CMR indices including LV global function index (LV-GFI), myocardial salvage index (MSI), and microvascular obstruction (MVO) were calculated. LVR was defined as an increase in CMR LV end-diastolic volume (EDV) >15% after 6 months.
resultsOf 41 patients, 10 (24%) had LVR (LV-EDV from 145.1 ± 29.3 to 185.9 ± 49.8 ml,
conclusionsThe SAS area evaluated by 2D-STE early in acute STEMI is a valuable predictor of LVR after 6 months. Further investigations are needed to verify its value in predicting patient survival.
