Assessment of Right Ventricular Function in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction We assessed the right ventricular function in patients with first acute anterior wall myocardial infarction (AWMI) and inferior wall myocardial infarction (IWMI) without associated right ventricular infarction and assessed the relation between right ventricular function and the in-hospital clinical outcomes. Methods The present study was an observational cross-sectional study, which enrolled a total of 200 patients with chest pain of <24 hours who were diagnosed with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) for the first time. Echocardiography was performed with a special emphasis on the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) score. The in-hospital clinical outcomes include major adverse cardiac events (MACE), which refer to all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, recurrent MI, heart failure, or stroke in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Results A total of 200 patients with AMI were enrolled in the study of which 66% were males. Of patients, 68% had AWMI and 32% had IWMI. Patients with AWMI had more right ventricular dysfunctional changes as compared to IWMI, as measured by TAPSE score (17.8 ± 4.64 mm vs. 19.87 ± 3.61; p = 0.01, respectively). The incidence of MACE was 27.9% in AWMI as compared to 12.5% in IWMI (41.9% vs. 18.75% had right ventricular dysfunction, respectively). The outcome of AWMI patients was poor as compared to IWMI patients, as measured by duration of hospital stay (9.5 ± 4.73 days and 6.6 ± 4.70 days, respectively) and mortality (17.64% in AWMI vs. 6.25% in IWMI). The patients of AMI with TAPSE score ≤18 mm, suggesting right ventricular dysfunction, had a higher rate of MACE compared to those with TAPSE score >18 mm, respectively, 36.23% vs. 12.2%. Conclusion From this study, it is concluded that AWMI results in a higher incidence of right ventricular dysfunction as compared to IWMI. Furthermore, patients with AMI with concomitant right ventricular dysfunction were found to have poorer outcomes in terms of longer duration of hospital stay, higher incidence of MACE, and higher mortality rate, as compared to patients of AMI without right ventricular dysfunction.
