Three-dimensional echocardiographic assessment of Chiari's network relationship with the left ventricular false tendon.

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
backgroundLeft ventricular false tendon (LVFT) is a fibromuscular band crossing the left ventricular cavity. And Chiari's network (CN) is a highly mobile, mesh-like, echogenic structure in right atrium. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the coexistence of LVFT in patients with CN. CN patients were examined with live/real-time three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for visualization of LVFT.
resultsThis is a single-center prospective study of 49 patients with CN. In literature studies, the average ratios of LVFT were 22% in the normal population. In our study, an increased ratio of LVFT (n = 31, 63.3%) was found in CN patients evaluated with a three-dimensional TTE (63.3% versus 22%) (p = 0.01). The interatrial septal aneurysm was found in 31 (63.3%) patients with CN. And, the positive contrast echocardiography examination was determined in 22 (61.1%) patients with CN.
conclusionsOur study reveals that CN is associated with LVFT and is also associated with cardiac anomalies like an interatrial septal aneurysm, and atrial septal defect. And LVFT can be evaluated better with three-dimensional TTE than with traditional two-dimensional TTE. Patients with CN should be evaluated more carefully by three-dimensional echocardiography as they can be in synergy in terms of the cardiac pathologies they accompany.
