Multiparametric Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Assessment in Sickle Beta Thalassemia.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. 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
Cardiac involvement in sickle beta thalassemia (Sβ-thal) patients has been poorly investigated. We aimed to evaluate cardiac function and myocardial iron overload by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with Sβ-thal. One-hundred and eleven Sβ-thal patients consecutively enrolled in the Myocardial Iron Overload in Thalassemia (MIOT) network were studied and compared with 46 sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients and with 111 gender- and age- matched healthy volunteers. Cine images were acquired to quantify biventricular function. Myocardial iron overload (MIO) was assessed by the T2* technique, while macroscopic myocardial fibrosis was evaluated by the late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) technique. In Sβ-thal and SCA patients, the morphological and functional CMR parameters were not significantly different, except for the left atrial area and left ventricular (LV) stroke volume, indexed by body surface area (
