Echocardiographic Estimation of right ventricular stroke work index based on pulmonary regurgitant velocity in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
Article in Journal of echocardiography, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRight ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a key determinant of mortality in heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF). RV stroke work index (RVSWI) is an established invasive parameter of RV function; however, echocardiographic methods for estimating RVSWI have not yet been fully established. We hypothesized that the pulmonary regurgitant (PR) velocity waveform-derived early-diastolic pulmonary artery-RV pressure gradient (PRPG) would allow an accurate estimation of RVSWI because of its fidelity to the original formula. This study aimed to investigate whether non-invasive estimation of RVSWI is feasible in patients with HFrEF.
methodsIn this retrospective study, 120 adult patients with HFrEF who underwent right heart catheterization within 24 h of echocardiography were included. RVSWI was calculated as (mean pulmonary artery pressure - mean right atrial pressure) × stroke volume index (SVI). Based on the continuous-wave Doppler velocity measurements of PR, echocardiographic estimation of RVSWI was calculated as PRPG × pulsed-wave Doppler-derived SVI (RVSWI
