Right Ventricular Strain to Assess Early Right Heart Failure in the Left Ventricular Assist Device Candidate.
Review in Current heart failure reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewRight heart failure (RHF) following left ventricular assist device implantation (LVAD) remains the primary cause of postoperative mortality and morbidity, and prediction of RHF is the main interest of the transplantation community. In this review, we outline the role and impact of right ventricular strain in the evaluation of the right ventricle function before LVAD implantation. RECENT
findingsAccumulating data suggest that measurement of right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLS) has a critical role in predicting RHF preoperatively and may improve morbidity and mortality following LVAD implantation. However, the significant intraobserver, interobserver variability, the lack of multicenter, prospective studies, and the need for a learning curve remain the most critical limitations in the clinical practice at present. This review highlighted the importance of right ventricular strain in the diagnosis of RHF preoperatively and revealed that RVLS might have a crucial clinical measurement for the selection and management of LVAD patients in the future with the more extensive multicenter studies.
