Assessment of Right Ventricular Function, Blood Lactate Levels, and Serum Peptidomics Profiles Associated With Mitral Valve Disease in Dogs.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDegenerative mitral valve disease is a common heart problem in dogs. The aims are to evaluate the relationships between right and left ventricular function, and blood lactate concentrations, assess prognostic contribution, and investigate whether serum peptidomics profile could reveal markers or determine the stage in dogs with valve degeneration. MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-three dogs were evaluated in this study. Thirty-nine dogs' serum was collected and analyzed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to predict the outcomes of mitral valve disease. Follow-up was obtained by a questionnaire or telephone to determine a survival time.
resultsThe BUN/creatinine ratio, vertebral heart score, and left atrium/aorta ratio were the independent predictors of cardiac mortality. Right ventricular systolic dysfunction was found in 50% of dogs with mitral valve disease. Dogs with right ventricular dysfunction had a significantly higher incidence of lower fractional shortening and larger right ventricular dimensions. The occurrence of right-sided dysfunction is proportionate to age and the degree of left ventricular dysfunction. High blood lactate concentrations were investigated in dogs with mitral valve disease stage C compared with stage B. The peptides such as mitogen-activated protein kinase, kallikrein, and tenascin-C appeared in the heart disease progression group.
conclusionRight-hearted function assessment, blood lactate levels, and peptidomics analysis may help early detection and prognosis of this disease in dogs. Peptidomics profiles from this study demonstrate the possibility for prognosis indicators of heart valve degeneration.
