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 ventricular (LV) remodeling is a major determinant of the clinical course and outcome of systolic heart failure (HF). Activation of neurohormonal and inflammatory cytokine pathways and their effects on intracellular signal transduction cascades through stimulation of membrane-bound receptors mediate LV remodeling. Although major advances have been made in clinical management of HF through large randomized trials, its prognosis remains poor. Interindividual differences, often genetically based, are increasingly recognized as important determinants of LV remodeling. Identification of the influence of these individual factors on the clinical course of HF has stimulated a search for specific pathophysiologic mechanisms that operate at the individual level and can be targeted directly. This article summarizes the current application of molecular imaging techniques to the understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in LV remodeling in an attempt to provide the tools necessary for personalized, truly "evidence-based" assessment, serial evaluation, and monitoring of HF.
