Echocardiographic quantification of mitral apparatus morphology and dynamics in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mitral regurgitation is among the most common valvular heart diseases. Mitral regurgitation in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy is a complex pathology involving annular dilatation, papillary muscle displacement, systolic leaflet tethering, and left ventricular remodeling. Quantification of mitral apparatus damage in these patients is essential for successful interventional and surgical therapy. Mitral regurgitation in the presence of dilated cardiomyopathy is classified as Carpentier type IIIB, with restricted leaflet mobility as a standard feature. Echocardiography allows accurate evaluation of the complex anatomy and function of the mitral apparatus. Updated guidelines recommend two-dimensional followed by systematic three-dimensional echocardiographic evaluation in patients with mitral regurgitation. New three-dimensional echocardiographic software packages provide many parameters that help identify the precise morphology and function of the various components of the mitral apparatus, helping to determine the etiology of mitral regurgitation and evaluate disease severity. This review provides the first point-by-point approach to the assessment of all old and new echocardiographic methods, from the simplest to the most complex, used to examine the components of the mitral valve apparatus in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Although these parameters are still under research, this information will be helpful for establishing therapeutic procedures in a disease with a poor prognosis.
