Strain imaging as an early predictor in acute myocardial infarction - An augmented cross-sectional study.
Article in Indian heart journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
introductionCardiac fibres are affected invariably in myocardial infarction, with longitudinal strain being the earliest to be detected in the ischaemic cascade. The present study aims to assess strain imaging in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients admitted to the cardiology department at our institute and correlate GLS and DESL findings with other markers for myocardial function. METHODS AND MATERIAL: This augmented cross-sectional study was conducted amongst the patients admitted with diagnosis of AMI. During the study period, 157 subjects were sampled through convenience sampling, and examined as well as tested with routine investigations at baseline. The subjects were then followed through at first, third and six months, and findings noted. Chi-square was used to assess the crude association between sample characteristics. Pearson correlation and student t-test were used to find association between continuous variables.
resultsAfter screening 564 patients, 157 patients were included in the study after fulfilment of inclusion and exclusion criteria. A significant difference was found in baseline GLS scores and NTproBNP levels at 6 months in alive patients with STEMI, t (21.728) = -5.717, p < .001. Out of the 50 NSTEMI patients, 35 (70 %) were positive for ESL, similarly out of 43 STEMI patients without any RWMA, ESL was positive in 39 (90.02 %) patients.
conclusionsGLS by STE has good correlation with LVEF, WMSI and NT pro-BNP and it is an independent predictor of mortality and heart failure among patients with AMI.
