Diagnostic Value and Clinical Performance of Cardiac Ultrasound in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure with Hypertension.

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
Objective: To assess the diagnostic value and clinical performance of cardiac ultrasound in patients with chronic heart failure and hypertension. Methods: In this prospective study, between August 2017 and January 2020, 50 patients with chronic heart failure and hypertension were recruited and assigned to the study group and 50 healthy individuals during the same period after physical examinations were included in the control group. Cardiac ultrasound examinations were performed on the participants, and the results were compared and analyzed. Results: The study group had a higher left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and late diastolic peak flow velocity (A wave) and showed lower early diastolic peak flow velocity (E wave) and late diastolic peak flow velocity/lower early diastolic peak flow velocity (E/A) ratio levels than in the control group. The study group had 15 patients with grade I cardiac function (ultrasound detection rate of 100%), 18 patients with grade II cardiac function (ultrasound detection rate of 100%), and 17 patients with grade III cardiac function (ultrasound detection rate of 100%). Grade I cardiac function patients showed the lowest LVEDD, LVESD, and E/A and the highest LVEF than grade II patients, followed by grade III patients. The study group showed higher LVEF and echocardiographic estimation of the pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) and lower right ventricular lateral wall systolic excursion velocity and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) than the control group. Chronic heart failure with hypertension was associated with high levels of right atrial total emptying volume (RAVIt), right atrial passive emptying volume (RAVIp), right atrial active emptying volume (RAVIa), and right atrial active emptying fraction (RAVIaEF) and low levels of right atrial total emptying fraction (RAVItEF) and right atrial passive emptying fraction (RAVIpEF) versus the healthy status (all Conclusion: Cardiac ultrasound is a noninvasive operation with low cost, high repeatability, and accurate detection, which can identify right heart function impairment at an early stage, assist clinical treatment, and improve patient prognosis, so it is worthy of promotion and application.
