Left ventricular strain in patients with Takayasu arteritis with preserved ejection fraction: an analysis using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging feature tracking.

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: The alteration of myocardial strain in patients with Takayasu arteritis (TAK) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate left ventricular (LV) stain in patients with TAK and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (pLVEF) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging feature tracking (CMR-FT) to analyze risk factors for impaired LV strain and to compare the baseline difference of LV strain between patients with reduced and nonreduced LVEF at 6-month follow-up. Methods: In all, 51 patients with TAK and 30 healthy controls were prospectively enrolled. All participants underwent multiple short- and long-axis cine scans with true fast imaging with steady-state precession sequence. In this observational study, LV global and regional longitudinal, circumferential, and radial strain and their strain rates were analyzed with FT on cine images. The relationship between LV strain and clinical data was explored. The baseline LV strain between patients with TAK and reduced and nonreduced LVEF was compared using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) at the 6-month follow-up. Results: Patients with TAK with pLVEF showed a decline in baseline global longitudinal peak strain (GLS) [TAK (-13.35%±3.11%) Conclusions: In patients with TAK and pLVEF, CMR-FT indicated that both global and segmental myocardial strain decreased. PH, male gender, long disease duration, elevated ESR, and myocardial LGE were associated with declined LV strain. Baseline increased circumferential DPSR may be associated with the decline in LVEF during follow-up.
