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

objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate changes in left ventricular and left atrial mechanics in relation to the severity of aortic stenosis (AS) by comparing computed tomography (CT)-derived strain values in patients with mild-to-severe AS. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis single-center retrospective study included 120 patients (median age, 76 years; 45.0% male), comprising 30, 30, and 60 patients with mild, moderate, and severe AS, respectively, all of whom underwent multiphase cardiac CT between 2015 and 2021. Patients were selected from 177 individuals who met the initial eligibility criteria, with matching for age, sex, and hypertension in a 1:1:2 ratio across the mild, moderate, and severe AS groups. Electrocardiography-gated cardiac CT images were analyzed to obtain various quantitative left ventricle (LV) and left atrium (LA) strain parameters. Statistical differences in cardiac CT-derived LV and LA strain parameters among mild, moderate, and severe AS were evaluated using the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by post-hoc tests.

resultsThe median LV global longitudinal strain differed significantly across AS severity (GLS: -19.4%, -18.2%, and -16.2% for mild, moderate, and severe AS, respectively;

conclusionIn patients with AS, CT-derived LV and LA strains revealed changes in myocardial deformation according to AS severity. Specifically, there was a gradual decrease in the absolute value of LV GLS with increasing AS severity and initial preservation until moderate AS, followed by an eventual decrease in the absolute values of LV GCS, LV GRS, and LA conduit strain in severe AS.
