Clinical Applications of Myocardial Work in Echocardiography: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular echography. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) has recently garnered attention as a reliable and objective method for evaluating LV systolic function. One of the key advantages of GLS is its ability to detect subtle abnormalities even when the ejection fraction (EF) appears to be preserved. However, it is important to note that GLS, much like LVEF, is significantly influenced by load conditions. In recent years, researchers and clinicians have been exploring noninvasive myocardial work (MW) quantification as an innovative tool for assessing myocardial function. This method integrates measurements of strain and LV pressure, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the heart's performance. Notably, MW offers an advantage over GLS and LVEF because it provides a load-independent assessment of myocardial performance. The implementation of commercial echocardiographic software that facilitates the noninvasive calculation of MW has significantly broadened the scope of its application. This advanced technology is now being utilized in multiple clinical settings, including ischemic heart disease, valvular diseases, cardiomyopathies, cardio-oncology, and hypertension. One of the fundamental aspects of MW is its correlation with myocardial oxygen consumption, which allows for the assessment of work efficiency. Understanding this relationship is crucial for diagnosing and managing various cardiac conditions. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the noninvasive assessment of myocardial by echocardiography, from basic principles and methodology to current clinical applications.
