Cardiac Computed Tomography-Derived Left Atrial Strain and Volume in Pediatric Patients With Congenital Heart Disease: A Comparative Analysis With Transthoracic Echocardiography.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Purpose: This study aimed at exploring the feasibility and reproducibility of CCT for the measurement of Left Atrial (LA) strain and volume compared with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Materials and Methods: The present study included 43 postoperative patients with CHD (7.39 ± 3.64 years, 56% male) who underwent clinically indicated CCT, and all patients underwent additional TTE on the same day. LA strain and volume parameters were measured by dedicated software. The correlation and agreement of LA strain and volume parameters were assessed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman analysis. Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to assess CCT intra-observer and inter-observer reproducibility. Results: All strain parameters of CCT were lower compared to TTE (reservoir strain: 28.37 ± 6.92 Conclusions: CCT was feasible for measuring LA strain and volume with good correlation and high reproducibility as compared with TTE. As a complementary modality, CCT can regard as an accepted method in the evaluation of LA function in pediatric patients with CHD.
