Computed tomography and transthoracic echocardiography for assessment of left ventricle geometry in patients with aortic valve stenosis.

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
Introduction: Standard transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) often is not sufficient to properly visualize the geometry of the left ventricle. One of the clinical imaging modalities that can be used for this purpose is contrast-enhanced, electrocardiologically gated cardiac computed tomography (CT). Aim: To compare cardiac CT and TTE as tools for assessing geometry and function of the left ventricle in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Material and methods: We analyzed 58 consecutive patients (43.1% males, mean age 81.4 ±6.0 years) with severe aortic stenosis, who underwent both cardiac CT and TTE. Results: Left ventricle major axis length is significantly longer in CT than in TTE (81.5 ±11.7 mm vs. 74.6 ±13.5 mm, Conclusions: The use of three-dimensional postprocessing provides a very accurate image of heart structures in CT, which in some aspects may significantly differ from the values estimated by TTE.
