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
Background: Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity is a concern for patients with gynecologic cancer. This study aimed to assess left ventricular (LV) myocardial deformation in patients with gynecologic cancer undergoing chemotherapy and to investigate the association between myocardial deformation and chemotherapy factors. Methods: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed to assess LV deformation parameters using CMR tissue tracking based on cine images. Serum myocardial injury biomarker were measured. Deformation parameters were compared between healthy controls and patients. Changes in deformation were assessed as chemotherapy progressed. Correlations between LV deformation parameters, clinical characteristics, and serum myocardial injury biomarkers were also analyzed. Results: A total of 86 patients with gynecologic cancer and 30 normal controls were included. Among the patients, 41 completed CMR follow-up with a median interval of 6 months. Compared to the controls, patients exhibited lower absolute value of global radial strain (GRS) (37.30 ± 8.94% vs. 44.32 ± 8.44%), global circumferential strain (GCS) (-22.12 ± 3.05% vs. -24.08 ± 2.13%) and global longitudinal strain (GLS) (median -15.72% [IQR-17.13 to -13.58%] vs. -17.51 ± 2.00 %) (all Conclusions: Myocardial deformation is more sensitive than LVEF in detecting subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in patients with gynecologic cancer undergoing chemotherapy. GCS was associated with the number of chemotherapy regimens.
