Relationship Between Left Atrial Strain and Atrial Fibrillation: The Role of Stress Echocardiography.
Review 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 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Interest in advanced echocardiographic imaging methods is growing. Left atrial strain (LAS) is among recently developed echocardiographic parameters. LAS represents an index of tissue deformation of the left atrium (LA). This parameter is an expression of LA function. Several arrhythmias are caused by impaired LA function. LAS can be assessed with a resting echocardiogram. The evaluation of LAS during stress echocardiography represents another model for assessing LA function. The development of altered LAS during physical or pharmacological stress is a predictor of early LA disease. Our review aims to evaluate the relationship between alterations in LAS and the development of atrial fibrillation (AF), and the diagnostic and prognostic roles of the stress echocardiogram in clinical practice.
