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

We sought to obtain a rabbit myocardial infarction (MI) model for research with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) by overcoming a few technical difficulties. A novel endotracheal method was developed for intubation and ventilation. Fourteen rabbits were divided into group-1 (n = 8) with open-chest occlusion of left circumflex coronary artery and closed-chest reperfusion, and group-2 (n = 6) of non-ischemic control; and received ECG-triggered cMRI with delayed contrast enhancement (DE-cMRI) at a 1.5 T clinical scanner. The MI areas in group-1 were morphometrically compared between DE-cMRI and histochemically stained specimens. Left ventricular (LV) functions were compared between two groups.The success rate of intubation and reperfused MI was 8/8 and 6/8, respectively. Global and regional LV functions significantly decreased in group-1 as evidenced by significant hypokinesis of lateral LV-wall and wall thickening (P \ 0.001). Mean MI-area was 19.41 +/- 21.92% on DE-cMRI and 19.10 +/- 22.61% with histochemical staining (r = 0.985). Global MI-volume was 17.92 +/- 7.42% on DE-cMRI and 16.62 +/- 7.16% with histochemistry (r = 0.994). The usefulness of this model was successfully tested for assessing a new contrast agent. The present rabbit MI model may offer a practical platform for more translational research using clinical MRI-facilities.
