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

backgroundTricuspid annulus (TA) geometry and function reference values are limited, especially for Asian populations. We aimed to explore TA using four-dimensional echocardiography (4DE) in a healthy Asian population.

methodsA total of 355 healthy Asian volunteers (median age 34 years; 52% males) were prospectively enrolled. TA geometry and function were analyzed using 4DE throughout the cardiac cycle.

resultsThe TA area, perimeter, and dimensions were smallest at end systole (ES) and largest at late diastole (LD). Normal TA parameters at end diastole (ED) in different sex and age groups were obtained. TA areas, perimeters, and dimensions in males were significantly larger than those in females at ED; BSA-indexed perimeters and BSA-indexed dimensions in males were significantly smaller than those in females at ED. TA parameters correlated well with tricuspid valve (TV) tenting, right ventricle (RV), and right atrium (RA) parameters.

conclusionsReference values of TA parameters were obtained by 4DE in an Asian population. Quantitative data on TA geometry and function are essential for TA pathology and therapeutics.
