The correlation of left atrial diameter with preserved ejection fraction, reduced ejection fraction, and mid-range ejection fraction.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundIn patients with heart failure, left atrial remodeling often occurs to varying degrees. Left atrial enlargement has been proved to be an important predictor of cardiovascular-related adverse events. However, the relationship between left atrial diameter (LAD) with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) remains unclear. HYPOTHESIS: We want to explore the correlation between left atrial diameter and HFpEF, HFmrEF, and HFrEF.
methodsA total of 210 patients with heart failure who underwent hospitalization in Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital, Zhejiang, China, from January 1, 2020, to June 31, 2021, were reviewed. The basic demographic characteristics, blood test, and the related indexes of echocardiography of the subjects were collected and analyzed.
resultsThere is a significant difference between HFpEF and HFrEF group in LAD (p = .007), and LAD is negatively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (p = .002, r = -.209).
conclusionLAD is negatively correlated with LVEF, which may predict the prevalence of HFrEF.
