The Role of Right Ventricular Embryology in Echocardiographic Assessment of RV Function.
Review in Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The right ventricle (RV) possesses a complex geometry and unique functional characteristics stemming from its embryologic development. Unlike the left ventricle (LV), which arises primarily from the primary heart field, the RV originates predominantly from the anterior or secondary heart field, influencing its structural organization, myocardial fiber orientation, and contractile patterns. This embryologic origin is not only essential for understanding congenital anomalies but also profoundly impacts the interpretation and accuracy of echocardiographic modalities used to assess RV function. This review explores how knowledge of RV embryology enhances the clinical application of echocardiographic methods, including tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), RV fractional area change (FAC), 3D echocardiography, and RV longitudinal strain. Incorporating embryologic insights provides a more anatomically and physiologically grounded approach to evaluating RV performance, especially in congenital heart disease and right heart failure.
