Effect of Infarct Location and Size on Left Atrial Function: A Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Feature Tracking Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: LA function has been recognized as a significant prognostic marker in many cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) represents a promising technique for left atrial function evaluation. The size and location of myocardial infarction are important factors in the cause of adverse left ventricular remodeling, but the effect on the left atriam is unclear. Purpose: to investigate the effect of location and size of previous myocardial infarction (MI) on LA function using CMR-FT. Study type: retrospective. Population: patients formerly diagnosed with anterior MI (n = 42) or non-anterior MI (n = 40) and healthy controls (n = 47). Field Strength/Sequence: a 3.0T MR, Steady state free precession (SSFP), Phase-sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR). Assessment: infarct location and size were assigned and quantified by late-gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging. LA performance was analyzed using CMR-FT in 2- and 4-chamber cine images, including LA reservoir, conduit and booster pump function. Statistics: descriptive statistics, ANOVA with post Bonferroni correction, Kruskal−Wallis H, Spearman’s correlation, intraclass correlation coefficient. Results: Anterior MI patients had impaired LA reservoir function (LATEF, εs, SRs), conduit function (LAPEF, εe, SRs) and booster pump function (LAAEF, εa) compared with controls (p < 0.05). Non-anterior MI patients had impaired LA strain (εs, εe, εa; p < 0.05) but preserved LAEFs (p > 0.05). After adjusting the area of MI, there was no significant difference in the LA morphology and function between the anterior and non-anterior wall groups. Stratification analysis by MI size revealed that LA volumes and LAEFs were unchanged in patients with MI size ≤ 15% compared with controls (p > 0.05); only εs and εe were decreased (p < 0.05). Increased LAVIpre-a, LAVImin and decreased LATEF, and LAAEF were found in patients with MI size > 15% compared with the MI size ≤ 15% group (p < 0.05). LVSVI, εs and MI size were significant correlated with LAVI pre-a in multiple stepwise regression analysis. Data conclusions: The location of myocardial infarction is not a major factor affecting the morphology and function of the left atrium. Patients with MI size > 15% experience more pronounced post-infarction LA remodeling and dysfunction than MI size ≤ 15% patients.
