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

This article was written as part of the 75th anniversary celebration of the British Pharmacological Society (BPS). It discusses antiarrhythmic drug research conducted by members of BPS, and as published in the British Journal of Pharmacology (BJP). BPS members, past and present, as well as antiarrhythmic manuscripts published in the BJP have been identified. From these data, the article attempts to semiquantitatively summarize results published in the journal, but only quotes selected manuscripts and individuals. Apologies are offered for omissions and errors, but as in any history, a writer's biases and opinions are unavoidable.
