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

backgroundDetermining right ventricular (RV) volume typically requires three-dimensional imaging due to its complex shape. The ellipsoid model offers a two-dimensional alternative, employing area- or linear-based formulas with further variations depending on the echocardiographic views used for measurements. HYPOTHESIS/

objectivesTo identify which ellipsoid model variant best agrees with real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3D) as a reference standard and to assess within-day reproducibility. ANIMALS: Sixty-seven client-owned dogs (23 normal, 44 with right-sided heart diseases) underwent echocardiograms, with 20 normal dogs receiving a repeat examination.

methodsProspective method comparison study. Body weight-indexed end-diastolic (iEDV) and end-systolic volumes (iESV) were calculated across eight ellipsoid model variants. Agreement was assessed using concordance correlation coefficients (r
