Left ventricular long-axis function in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Relationships between e`, early diastolic excursion and duration, and systolic excursion.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe peak velocity of early diastolic mitral annular motion (e`) is believed to provide sensitive detection of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), but other aspects of LV long-axis function in HCM have received less attention. Systolic mitral annular excursion (SExc) is also reduced in HCM and must be an intrinsic limitation to the extent of the subsequent motion during diastole. However, the effects of HCM on excursion during early diastole (EDExc) and atrial contraction (AExc), the duration of early diastolic motion (EDDur), and the relationships of EDExc with SExc, and of e`with EDExc and EDDur, are all unknown.
methodsThe study group was 22 subjects with HCM and there were 22 age and sex matched control subjects. SExc, EDExc, e`, AExc and EDDur were measured from pulsed wave tissue Doppler signals acquired from the septal and lateral walls. In the combined group of HCM and control subjects, multivariate analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of EDExc and e`for both LV walls.
resultsSExc, EDExc and e`were all lower, and EDDur was longer in the HCM group compared to the control group for both LV walls (p<0.05 for all). In contrast, AExc was lower for the septal wall in the HCM group (p<0.05), but not different between the groups for the lateral wall. In regression analyses of the combined group, EDExc was positively correlated with SExc, and SExc explained 57-86% of the variances in septal and lateral EDExc, e`was positively correlated with EDExc, and EDExc explained 58-68% of the variances of e`, whereas the combination of EDExc with EDDur explained 87-92% of the variances in e`. A diagnosis of HCM was not an independent predictor of EDExc when in combination with SExc, but was a minor contributor to the prediction of e`in combination with EDExc and EDDur.
conclusionIn HCM, the decrease in LV longitudinal contraction is the major mechanism accounting for a lower EDExc, the lower e`is accounted for by contributions from the lower EDExc and prolongation of early diastolic motion, and there is no atrial compensation for the reduction of long-axis contraction.
