Current and novel echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular systolic function in aortic stenosis-A comprehensive review.
Review in Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a complex and progressive condition that can significantly reduce the quality of life and increase the incidence of premature mortality. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the gold standard imaging modality for the assessment of AS severity. While left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) derived from TTE is a very well-understood parameter, limitations such as high inter and intra-observer variability, insensitivity to sub-clinical dysfunction, and influence of loading conditions make LVEF a complicated and unreliable parameter. Myocardial deformation imaging has been identified as a promising parameter for identifying subclinical left ventricular dysfunction, however, this parameter is still afterload dependent. Myocardial Work is a promising novel assessment technique that accounts for afterload by combining the use of myocardial deformation imaging and non-invasive blood pressure to provide a more comprehensive assessment of mechanics beyond LVEF. This review evaluates the evidence for various echocardiographic assessment parameters used to quantify left ventricular function including myocardial work in patients with AS.
