Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain as a Predictor for Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
backgroundA considerable number of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) experience left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR). LV global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) offers sensitive and reproducible measurement of myocardial dysfunction. The authors sought to evaluate whether LV GLS at the time of diagnosis may predict LVRR in DCM patients with sinus rhythm and investigate its prognostic role in long-term follow-up in this population.
methodsWe enrolled 160 DCM patients with sinus rhythm who had been initially diagnosed, evaluated, and followed at our institute. We analyzed their medical records and echocardiographic data.
resultsDuring the mean follow-up duration of 37.3 ± 21.7 months, LVRR occurred in 28% of patients (n = 45). The initial LV ejection fraction (LVEF) of patients who recovered LV function was 26.1 ± 7.9%, which was not significantly different from the value of 27.1 ± 7.4% (p = 0.49) in those who did not recover. There was a moderate and highly significant correlation between baseline LV GLS (-%) and follow-up LVEF (r = 0.717; p < 0.001). Using multivariate Cox analysis, LV GLS (hazard ratio: 1.474, 95% confidence interval: 1.170-1.856; p = 0.001) was an independent predictor of LVRR.
conclusionsWe demonstrated that LV GLS was an independent predictor for LVRR and the optimal cut-off point of LV GLS for LVRR was -10% in DCM patients with sinus rhythm. There was a significant correlation between baseline LV GLS and follow-up LVEF.
