1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundCardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold standard for the quantitative assessment of cardiac volumes, mass and function. There are, however, various strategies for establishing endocardial borders, the cardiac phase used for measurements and the body dimensions used for indexing these results. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of different strategies on reference values. METHODS AND

results362 healthy volunteers (190 men, mean age 51 ± 13 years) underwent a standard CMR protocol. Left ventricular end-diastolic (LV-EDV) and end-systolic (LV-ESV) volumes and LV mass (LV-M) were measured at end systole and end diastole in SSFP sequences using two methods, one of which included papillary muscles and trabecular tissue in the LV-M ("include" approach), while the other excluded this tissue ("exclude" approach). There was a strong correlation between the results for LV volumes and LV ejection fraction (LV-EF) between the "include" and the "exclude" approach, while the mean values were different: LV-EDV: 149.7 ± 32.5 ml vs 160.5 ± 35.0 ml, p < 0.0001; LV-ESV: 48.7 ± 14.5 ml vs 56.4 ± 16.7 ml, p < 0.0001; LV-EF: 67.7 ± 5.4% vs 65.1 ± 5.6%, p < 0.0001. When comparing end-systolic with end-diastolic data, values for LV-M were significantly higher in end systole irrespective of whether papillary muscles and trabecular tissues were included or not. Furthermore, LV-M missed overweight-induced LV hypertrophy when indexed to body surface area (BSA) instead of height.

conclusionQuantitative assessment of LV volumes and mass with inclusion of papillary muscles and trabeculae to myocardial mass resulted in significantly different values, while indexing to BSA and not height may miss LV hypertrophy in terms of overweight.
