Assessment of Subclinical Deterioration of Right Ventricular Function by Three-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Anthracycline-Based Chemotherapy.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 14 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
objectiveThis study was aimed at assessing the longitudinal strain changes of RV function using three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D STE) in breast cancer patients receiving anthracycline chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 95 women with breast cancer receiving epirubicin (360 mg/m
resultsSubclinical CTRCD occurred in 10 (10.5%) patients during follow-up. Compared to baseline, the 3D GLS of LV and GLS and FWLS of RV decreased significantly at 12months after chemotherapy (all p<0.01). Variations of 3D RV GLS and RV FWLS had a good discrimination for predicting subclinical CTRCD. The variation of 3D RV FWLS was the only independent predictor of subclinical CTRCD (OR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.12-2.87; p = 0.028) in multivariate analysis. The cutoff value with -17.5% of 3D RV FWLS variation had a high predictive accuracy for subclinical CTRCD, with an AUC of 0.74, 80.5% sensitivity and 65.8% specificity. The association between 3D RV FWLS and the cumulative dose of anthracyclines was calculated by Spearman's test (r = -0.71, p < 0.001).
conclusionLongitudinal strain analysis by 3D STE allows the identification of subclinical RV dysfunction when conventional indices of RV function are unaffected. 3D RV FWLS was superior to other parameters in early detection of the development of CTRCD in breast cancer patients receiving epirubicin therapy.
