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

Left atrial (LA) strain parameters predict mortality in patients with ischaemic/non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a common conduction abnormality in those patients. To date, the impact of LBBB on LA strain parameters assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) has not been studied systematically. In this retrospective single-centre study, we included 20 (10 female) controls without DCM or LBBB, 21 (11 female) patients with LBBB without DCM, 20 (7 female) patients with DCM without LBBB, and 20 (9 female) patients with DCM and LBBB. LA volumes and strain were assessed semi-automatically using the cvi42
