P wave peak time: A time window to evaluate left ventricular diastolic function.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The activation time from electrical signals to chamber conformational change has long been demonstrated to associate with LV performance and ventriculo-arterial coupling with prognostic implications in heart failure patients. P wave peak time (PWPT), an easily obtainable parameter from conventional surface electrocardiography, represents the time taken for excitation spreading from sinoatrial node to the maximal summation of positive deflection from both atria. Increased PWPT denotes prolonged intra- or inter-atrial conduction time and indicates elevated intra-atrial pressure. As shown in a recently published study, PWPT was highly correlated with LV end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) derived from direct measurement during cardiac catheterization. With its objective and easily obtainable nature, clinical application of PWPT to evaluate diastolic function can be expected, if more studies in different populations can confirm its clinical utility.
