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 reparative process following left ventriculotomy was investigated immunohistochemically using anti-type I, II, III, IV, V and VI collagen antibodies, and anti-fibronectin antibody. Wound healing began with proliferation of young fibroblasts positive for type I, III and V collagens at the wound margin; vascular granulation tissue then grew into the injured myocardium followed by deposition of fibrous components immunoreactive with type I and III. At 30 days after operation when almost the entire thickness of the myocardium at the wound was replaced by fibrosing granulation tissue, a small cluster of adipocytes appeared around capillaries at the wound margin. The granulation tissue was gradually replaced by the adipose tissue with establishment of a fibrous union at the subendocardium by 90 days. In addition to type I and III collagens, type VI collagen was detected in a fine fibrillary pattern along thick collagen fibre bundles in the fibrous tissue and around the adipocytes. Fibronectin was distributed diffusely in the granulation tissue and gradually decreased with increase of the fibrous components. These results indicate that the ventriculotomy was finally repaired in the form of a fibrous scar, particularly in the endocardium. There was marked infiltration of adipose tissue in the damaged myocardium. Presumably type VI collagen, as well as type I and type III collagens, plays an important role in wound union.
