The evaluation of right ventricular function in patients with diabetes mellitus and significant stenosis at the proximal portion of the right coronary artery.

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
purposePrevious studies have indicated that right ventricular (RV) function is damaged in diabetes mellitus (DM); however, it is not clear whether in the presence of chronic ischemia, RV function is different between patients with and without DM (DM + and DM - , respectively).
methodsThis cross-sectional study enrolled 90 consecutive candidates for coronary artery bypass graft surgery and allocated them to 3 groups: 24 DM - patients with the absence of stenosis of more than 50% in the proximal and mid parts of the right coronary artery (the DM - RCA - group [control]), 33 DM - patients with the presence of significant stenosis (> 70%) in the proximal part of RCA (the DM - RCA + group), and 33 DM + patients with RCA + (the DM + RCA + group). RV function was evaluated based on longitudinal deformation markers, measured via the 2D speckle-tracking echocardiographic examination of right ventricular free wall (RVFW).
resultsThe systolic strain value, systolic strain rate, and late diastolic strain rate of RVFW were not statistically significantly different between the three groups. Our adjusted post hoc analysis showed that the early diastolic strain rate of RVFW in the DM + RCA + group was lower than that in the DM - RCA + and DM - RCA - groups (1.5 s
conclusionsDiastolic function in the presence of DM was impaired irrespective of RCA - or RCA + . Additionally, RCA + had no effect on systolic and diastolic RV functions at rest in our DM - patients.
