Three-Dimensional Global Left Ventricular Myocardial Strain Reduced in All Directions in Subclinical Diabetic Cardiomyopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
Background Three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography can identify subclinical diabetic cardiomyopathy without geometric assumption and loss of speckle from out-of-plane motions. There is, however, significant heterogeneity among the previous reports. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare 3D strain values between adults with asymptomatic, subclinical diabetes mellitus (ie, patients with diabetes mellitus without known clinical manifestations of cardiac disease) and healthy controls. Methods and Results After systematic review of 5 databases, 12 valid studies (544 patients with diabetes mellitus and 489 controls) were eligible for meta-analysis. Pooled means and mean difference (MD) using a random-effects model for 3D global longitudinal, circumferential, radial, and area strain were calculated. Patients with diabetes mellitus had an overall 2.31 percentage points lower 3D global longitudinal strain than healthy subjects (16.6%, 95% CI, 15.7-17.6 versus 19.0; 95% CI, 18.2-19.7; MD, -2.31, 95% CI, -2.72 to -2.03). Similarly, 3D global circumferential strain (18.9%; 95% CI, 17.5-20.3 versus 20.5; 95% CI, 18.9-22.1; MD, -1.50; 95% CI, -2.09 to -0.91); 3D global radial strain (44.6%; 95% CI, 40.2-49.1 versus 48.2; 95% CI, 44.7-51.8; MD, -3.47; 95% CI, -4.98 to -1.97), and 3D global area strain (30.5%; 95% CI, 29.2-31.8 versus 32.4; 95% CI, 30.5-34.3; MD, -1.76; 95% CI, -2.74 to -0.78) were also lower in patients with diabetes mellitus. Significant heterogeneity was noted between studies for all strain directions (inconsistency factor [I
