Myocardial Layer-Specific Strain Analysis in Children with Mitochondrial Disease.
Article in Yonsei medical journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeChildren with mitochondrial disease (MD) have clinical phenotypes that are more severe than those found in adults. In this study, we assessed cardiac function in children with MD using conventional and advanced echocardiographic measurements, explored any unique patterns present, and investigated the development of early cardiomyopathy (CMP). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 33 children with MD. All patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography with conventional and advanced myocardial analysis. We compared all data between patients and an age-matched healthy control group.
resultsConventional echocardiographic diastolic measurements of mitral E, E/A, and tissue Doppler E' were significantly lower and E/E' was significantly higher in children with MD, compared with the measurements from the control group. There was no significant difference in longitudinal and radial strain between the groups. Circumferential strain in the endocardium (p=0.161), middle myocardium (p=0.008), and epicardium (p=0.042) were lower in patients, compared to the values in controls. Circumferential strain was correlated with E' (p<0.01, r>0.60).
conclusionIn children with MD, myocardial circumferential strain may develop early in all three layers, even with normally preserved longitudinal and radial strain. This may be an early diagnostic indicator with which to predict CMP in this patient population.
