1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo evaluate differences in strain measurements by using tissue-tracking (TT) and feature-tracking (FT) software on cardiovascular MR images in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this retrospective cross-sectional study of 25 patients with repaired TOF (median age, 33.1 years; interquartile range, 25.3-38.3 years) from 2008 through 2014, left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) global circumferential and longitudinal strain were measured from cardiac MR images by using TT and FT software. Time to process was measured from opening the study to acceptance of contours. Intra- and interobserver reproducibility were evaluated with Bland-Altman analysis, coefficient of variation, and intraclass correlation coefficient.

resultsTime to process was slightly longer for TT (10.2 minutes ± 3.1 [standard deviation] vs 9.0 minutes ± 1.7,

conclusionTT and FT have systematic differences in strain values and reproducibility, particularly for longitudinal strain. Software-specific normative data are necessary, as are studies to evaluate correlation with clinical outcomes for each modality.© RSNA, 2019.
