Echocardiographic Assessment in Patients Recovered from Acute COVID-19 Illness.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Coronavirus (COVID-19) infections have spread rapidly worldwide and posed an immense public health problem. COVID-19 infection can affect the cardiovascular system both acutely and in patients followed up some period after COVID-19 infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) function by echocardiography in COVID-19 recovered patients (hospitalized and non-hospitalized). Forty-two patients who recovered from COVID-19 but had ongoing symptoms were included in this retrospective observational cross-sectional study. Patients were followed-up at a median time of 112 days from confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis and a comprehensive echocardiogram was performed. COVID-19 patients were age- and sex-matched to healthy controls. Traditional TTE parameters and advanced echocardiographic parameters including two-dimensional LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) and RV free wall strain (FWS) were measured. LV volumes and LV ejection fraction were similar in COVID-19 patients and controls; however, LV GLS was significantly worse in the COVID-19 group (
