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

We aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) strain parameters in ACM patients to evaluate their diagnostic role. We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Of the 146 records, 16 were included. All Right Ventricle (RV) global strains were significantly reduced in ACM patients compared to controls (Standardized Mean Difference (SMD)[95 % Confidence Interval (CI)]: Longitudinal 1.31[0.79,1.83]; Circumferential 0.88[0.34,1.42]; Radial -1.14[-1.78,-0.51]). Similarly, all Left Ventricle (LV) global strains were significantly impaired in ACM compared to healthy controls (SDM [95 %CI]: Longitudinal 0.88[0.48,12.28], Circumferential 0.97[0.72,1.22], Radial -1.24[-1.49,-1.00]). Regarding regional RV strains, longitudinal and circumferential strains were significantly reduced in basal and mid-wall regions, while they were comparable to controls in the apical regions. The RV radial strain was reduced only within the basal region in the ACM group compared to controls. ACM patients exhibited significant impairment of regional LV strains in all regions-basal, mid-wall, and apical-compared to control subjects. Ultimately, despite the limitations of CMR-FT in terms of reproducibility, it is superior to qualitative assessment in detecting wall motion abnormalities. Thus, integrating CMR-FT with ACM diagnostic criteria seems to enhance its diagnostic yield.
