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

In this study, we aimed to investigate the predictive value of early systolic lengthening duration in differentiating myocardial ischemia from scar tissue in patients with chronic coronary total occlusion. A total of 69 patients were included in the study. The participating patients were divided into two groups as 35 patients with ischemia and 34 patients with scar tissue based on the results of the myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. In the scar group compared to the ischemia group; LVEF, GLS, SRS', and the duration of early systolic lengthening were significantly lower; whereas, EDV, ESV, and WMSI were significantly higher in the scar group compared to the ischemia group. In the multivariate logistic regression test, LVEF (OR 1.150, 95% CI 1.044-1.268, p = 0.005) and duration of early systolic lengthening (OR 1.021, 95% CI 1.004-1.039, p = 0.016) were determined as independent predictive parameters for ischemia detected by myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. Duration of early systolic lengthening obtained by speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with chronic total occlusion lesions may be useful in differentiating ischemia from scar tissue detected in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. Prolonged duration of early systolic lengthening in patients with chronic total occlusion lesions was related to the presence of ischemia detected by myocardial perfusion scintigraphy.
