1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Left atrium longitudinal strain (LAS) with speckle tracking method has been proposed as a non-invasive method for the assessment of left ventricular filling pressure and diastolic dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate left atrial strain compared to invasively measured left ventricular filling pressure. All Patients candidates for coronary angiography were consecutively recruited. LAS measured by transthoracic echocardiography. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) pressure was invasively measured. Current echocardiographic modalities for diastolic function evaluated. A total of 125 people were included. 45 patients had preserved ejection fraction (EF ≥ 50%) and 85 patients had reduced EF (EF < 50%) and compared two groups. LVEDP was significantly higher in reduced EF compared to preserved EF (p-value < 0.001). LA-reservoir and LA-booster strains were significantly lower in patients with reduced EF compared to preserved EF (p-value = 0.008, mean Reservoir = 16.4% ± 6.4, mean Reservoir = 19.5% ± 5.6, respectively) and (p-value = 0.009, mean Booster = 9.09% ± 4.0, mean Booster =11. 9% ± 4.3, respectively). LA 4ch-reservoir strain <14.4%, and LA 2ch-reservoir strain <14.1% were related to LVEDP≥20 mmHg (sensitivity 63.5% and specificity 75%) (sensitivity 77.9% and specificity of 60%) respectively. LAS is significantly lower in patients with elevated LVEDP (≥ 20mmHg). LAS is significantly lower in patients with reduced EF. Both LA-reservoir and LA-booster strains have a significant relation to predicting LVFP but LA-reservoir strain is more accurate. The mean LA-reservoir strain less than 12.4% is associated with LVEDP ≥ 20mmHg.
