1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the contractile function of the left ventricular muscles in subjects with normal coronary artery and normal variations of coronary dominance.

methodsThis study was performed on 90 adult subjects with normal results of coronary arteries angiography, echocardiography, and electrocardiography. The participants were categorized into 3 groups of 30 with right-dominant, left-dominant, and codominant variations. Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography was performed with apical 2-, 3-, and 4-chamber views and parasternal basal, mid, and apical short-axis views. Then, images were analyzed offline using the velocity vector imaging method. In all studied groups, the mean and standard deviation of left ventricle coronary territorial longitudinal, circumferential, radial strains, and left ventricle global strains were determined. They were compared in 3 layers of sub-endocardial, myocardium, and sub-epicardial.

resultsIn terms of longitudinal and circumferential strains, there were significant differences in the most coronary territories and global strain among the right-dominant, left-dominant and codominant groups (P < .05). No significant differences in terms of territorial and global radial strains were observed among the study groups (P > .05).

conclusionStrain level decreased from endocardium to epicardium in all studied groups. Territorial and global contractile functions (longitudinal and circumferential strains) of the left ventricle vary depending on the variations of coronary arteries.
