The quest for determination of standard reference values of right ventricular longitudinal systolic strain: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
Right ventricular function is strongly associated with clinical outcomes in many conditions, and the evaluation of right ventricle (RV) structure and function in patients with cardiopulmonary disorders is an essential component of clinical management. The objective of this study was to determine the normal ranges of right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLS) measurements derived by two-dimensional (2D) speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) through a systematic review and meta-analysis. A systematic review was performed using PubMed, Cochrane, ClinicalKey, and CINAHL. Search terms covered the concepts of right ventricle, strain, speckle-tracking, and 2D echocardiography with additional filtering for humans and adults over the last decade. The RV four-chamber longitudinal strain (RV4CLS), RV free wall longitudinal strain (RVFWLS), and free wall longitudinal segmental strain values of healthy individuals without cardiopulmonary diseases from 28 studies were assessed. Weighted means were estimated using random-effects models in a meta-analysis. The results show for RV4CLS -24,91%[CI - 25.94; - 23.88, I
