Myocardial involvement and deformation abnormalities in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy assessed by CMR feature tracking.
Article in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundCardiac involvement has been described in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), including non-specific ECG and echocardiographic findings. Aim of our study was to evaluate myocardial deformation parameters in IIM and to correlate them with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) findings using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).
methodsForty-seven consecutive patients with histologically proven IIM were included into our study. Twenty-five healthy volunteers were used as a control group. All patients and controls underwent CMR examination using a 1.5 T scanner including functional cine and LGE imaging. After a mean follow-up of 234.7 ± 79.5 days a second CMR examination was performed in IIM patients.
resultsIn comparison to healthy volunteers, IIM patients had lower left ventricular mass and left ventricular global radial, circumferential and longitudinal strain. There was no significant difference in left ventricular ejection fraction. Patients with LGE (N = 28) had lower left ventricular ejection fraction (p = 0.016), global right and left ventricular longitudinal strain (p = 0.014 and p = 0.005) and global left ventricular diastolic longitudinal strain rate (p = 0.001) compared to patients without LGE (N = 19). In IIM patients, a significant decrease of left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular mass and all measured deformation parameters was observed between baseline and follow-up CMR.
conclusionCardiac involvement in IIM is frequent. Impairment of systolic and diastolic deformation parameters and a worsening over time can be observed. CMR is a useful tool for cardiac diagnostic work-up of these patients.
