Left atrial remodelling among Turner syndrome patients: novel insights from non-invasive 3D echocardiography.
Article in Quantitative imaging in medicine and surgery, 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
Background: To assess (I) the left atrial (LA) size, function and (II) the impact of excess weight on the LA and left ventricular (LV) performance in Turner syndrome (TS) patients. Methods: Twenty-five TS patients without congenital heart disease (CHD) and 19 healthy, age-matched controls underwent three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) for LA volume measurements and two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) for LA strain measurements. LV performance was measured through LV Tei-index, indexed isovolumetric contraction (ICT/√RR interval), indexed relaxation (IVRT/√RR interval) and indexed filling time (FT/√RR interval). Results: Compared to healthy controls, normal-weight TS patients (n=16) displayed significantly increased heart rate (92.88±16.66 Conclusions: Normal-weight TS patients with increased heart rate and reduced LV filling time display subtle LV diastolic dysfunction in the form of reduced LA reservoir and pump function. Manifested systolic and diastolic LV dysfunction among overweight TS patients is partially compensated through an increase in LA active pump function.
