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
Right ventricular (RV) volumetric cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) criteria serve as indicators for pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). Myocardial deformation and tricuspid valve displacement parameters may be more sensitive measures of RV dysfunction. This study's aim was to describe rTOF RV deformation and tricuspid displacement patterns using novel CMR semi-automated software and determine associations with standard CMR measures. Retrospective study of 78 pediatric rTOF patients was compared to 44 normal controls. Global RV longitudinal and circumferential strain and strain rate (SR) and tricuspid valve (TV) displacement were measured. Correlation analysis between strain, SR, TV displacement, and volumes was performed between and within subgroups. The sensitivity and specificity of strain parameters in predicting CMR criteria for PVR was determined. Deformation variables were reduced in rTOF compared to controls. Decreased RV strain and TV shortening were associated with increased RV volumes and decreased RVEF. Longitudinal and circumferential parameters were predictive of RVESVi (> 80 ml/m2) and RVEF (< 47%), with circumferential strain (> - 15.88%) and SR (> - 0.62) being most sensitive. Longitudinal strain was unchanged between rTOF subgroups, while circumferential strain trended abnormal in those meeting PVR criteria compared to controls. RV deformation and TV displacement are abnormal in rTOF, and RV circumferential strain variation may reflect an adaptive response to chronic volume or pressure load. This coupled with associations of ventricular deformation with traditional PVR indications suggest importance of this analysis in the evolution of rTOF RV assessment.
