The Prognostic Value of Left Ventricular Mechanical Dyssynchrony Derived from Cardiac MRI in Patients with Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

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
purposeTo investigate the prognostic value of mechanical dyssynchrony evaluated by deformable registration algorithm (DRA) analysis of cardiac MRI (CMR) in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). MATERIALS AND
methodsThis secondary analysis of a prospective study (clinical trial no. ChiCTR1800017058) enrolled 409 patients (mean age, 48 years ± 14:300 men) with idiopathic DCM who underwent CMR between June 2012 and September 2018. Mechanical dyssynchrony was measured as standard deviation of time-to-peak (sdTTP) and uniformity ratio estimate (URE) indexes by DRA strain analysis. The primary endpoint included all-cause mortality and heart transplantation. The secondary endpoint included primary endpoint, aborted sudden cardiac death, and heart failure readmission. Cox regression analyses and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were performed to identify the association between variables and outcomes.
resultsDuring a median follow-up of 25.1 months, 57 and 132 patients reached primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. Most URE indexes were significantly lower in patients reaching primary endpoint. In multivariable analysis, circumferential URE (CURE) at apical level was independently associated with primary endpoints (hazard ratio, 0.307 [95% CI: 0.106, 0.883];
conclusionURE indexes were more predictive of prognostic outcomes compared with sdTTP measurements; the CURE at apical level was an independent predictor of adverse cardiac events in patients with DCM.
