Role of substance P in viral myocarditis in mice.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Substance P (SP) is widely expressed in the central nervous system and in peripheral tissues such as myocardial nerves. We examined SP in viral myocarditis in mice induced by encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV). Localization of SP in the hearts was examined immunohistochemically, and concentrations of SP in hearts and sera were measured by enzyme immunoassay. Substance P levels and density of SP-containing cells in murine hearts on day 6 after EMCV inoculation were decreased compared with those in normal controls. There was a negative correlation between SP levels in the hearts and ratio of heart weight to body weight of the mice at 6 days. Circulating SP levels were decreased in mice on day 6 after EMCV inoculation, and further decreased on day 14. Substance P in hearts and sera is decreased in viral myocarditis in mice, suggesting that SP may play a role in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis, and that interaction of the neuropeptide nervous system and mast-cell immune system is important in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis.
