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

A number of neurohumoral processes are activated in heart failure, including an increase in the plasma concentration of norepinephrine. Few studies have been performed to examine the role of the central nervous system in the activation of sympathetic outflow during heart failure (HF). In this paper I review these limited studies, with particular emphasis on examining the role of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) in the exaggerated sympathetic outflow commonly observed in heart failure. The conclusion is that heart failure is associated with changes in specific areas in the brain and that alterations in the activation of neurons in the PVN are likely related to abnormalities in vasopressin production, blood volume regulation, and sympathoexcitation observed in the heart failure state. Furthermore, neuronal nitric oxide within the PVN that is involved in mediating sympathetic outflow via a GABA mechanism from the PVN may be deficient in inhibiting overall sympathetic outflow leading to the exaggerated sympathetic outflow commonly observed in heart failure.
