Current clinical applications of speckle tracking echocardiography for assessment of left atrial function.
Review in Journal of echocardiography, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07186153 (Effect of Sodium Glucose Co-transporter 2 Inhibitors on Left Atrial Remodeling in Diabetic Patients), which is not on this map. Cited by 26 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) enables assessment of left atrial (LA) function with better reproducibility and less load dependence than those with conventional methods. Data regarding LA functions determined by 2D-STE in patients with various cardiovascular diseases have recently been accumulating. LA strain has emerged as a novel parameter with the potential of improving the diagnostic accuracy of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and the prognostic value in patients with heart failure and stroke. Furthermore, LA dysfunction determined by 2D STE can provide incremental prognostic information to conventional echocardiographic parameters in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Hence, 2D-STE appears to be a promising technique for diagnosis and therapeutic decision-making. Data regarding LA functions determined by three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) have also been accumulating. Here, I review recent studies, especially those published after 2016, on clinical applications of LA function assessed by 2D-STE and 3D-STE and summarize the remaining problems to be solved for improving the clinical utility of these techniques.
