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

The mechanical properties of myocardium vary across the transmural aspect of the left ventricular wall. Some of these functional heterogeneities may be related to differences in excitation-contraction coupling characteristics that have been observed in cells isolated from the epicardial, mid-myocardial and endocardial regions of the left ventricle of many species, including canine. Integrative models of coupled myocyte electromechanics are reviewed and used here to investigate sources of heterogeneous electromechanical behaviour in these cells. The simulations (i) illustrate a previously unrecognized role of the transient outward potassium current in mechanical function and (ii) suggest that there may also exist additional heterogeneities affecting crossbridge cycling rates in cells from different transmural regions.
