Assessment and diagnosis of right ventricular failure-retrospection and future directions.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The right ventricle (RV) has a critical role in hemodynamics and right ventricular failure (RVF) often leads to poor clinical outcome. Despite the clinical importance of RVF, its definition and recognition currently rely on patients' symptoms and signs, rather than on objective parameters from quantifying RV dimensions and function. A key challenge is the geometrical complexity of the RV, which often makes it difficult to assess RV function accurately. There are several assessment modalities currently utilized in the clinical settings. Each diagnostic investigation has both advantages and limitations according to its characteristics. The purpose of this review is to reflect on the current diagnostic tools, consider the potential technological advancements and propose how to improve the assessment of right ventricular failure. Advanced technique such as automatic evaluation with artificial intelligence and 3-dimensional assessment for the complex RV structure has a potential to improve RV assessment by increasing accuracy and reproducibility of the measurements. Further, noninvasive assessments for RV-pulmonary artery coupling and right and left ventricular interaction are also warranted to overcome the load-related limitations for the accurate evaluation of RV contractile function. Future studies to cross-validate the advanced technologies in various populations are required.
