Novel echocardiographic markers for left ventricular filling pressure prediction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (ECHO-PREDICT): a prospective cross-sectional study.

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
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a complex clinical syndrome associated with a high level of morbidity and mortality, constituting 56% of heart failure cases and showing an increasing prevalence. The E/Ea ratio, used for echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, has been commonly recommended as a noninvasive measure. However, its validity lacks robust prospective validation in patients with preserved LV ejection fraction, and its accuracy has been questioned in comparison to patients with reduced LV ejection fraction. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of novel echocardiographic markers incorporating peak E velocity, left atrial volume index (LAVi), and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PAP) for noninvasive estimation of LV end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) against invasive measurement. In this cross-sectional study conducted at a tertiary care hospital, a sample size of 122 participants was utilized. Statistical analyses including independent samples
