Myocarditis successfully diagnosed and controlled with speckle tracking echocardiography.
Article in Cardiovascular ultrasound, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundSpeckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is an objective, well-validated and reproducible technique of assessing left ventricular longitudinal deformation; it also offers a more sensitive assessment of myocardial contractility than widely used visual estimation. Evaluating global longitudinal strain may help identify patients with subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 28-year-old man with myocarditis, which successfully diagnosed and followed-up with the novel echocardiography method using speckle tracking imaging. The patient was referred to our hospital with an initial diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Transthoracic echocardiography did not show any contractility abnormalities. Hence, in the course of further diagnostics, left ventricular function was assessed by STE. Depressed global longitudinal strain was noted within several segments of the left ventricle. Then, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed to confirm the diagnosis of myocarditis.
conclusionsSTE seems to be competitive in relation to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of some diseases, such as myocarditis.
