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

Heart failure is a global epidemic with limited therapy. Abnormal left ventricular wall stress in the diseased myocardium results in a biochemical positive feedback loop that results in global ventricular remodeling and further deterioration of myocardial function. Mechanical myocardial restraints such as the Acorn CorCap and Paracor HeartNet ventricular restraints have attempted to minimize diastolic ventricular wall stress and limit adverse ventricular remodeling. Unfortunately, these therapies have not yielded viable clinical therapies for heart failure. Cellular and novel biopolymer-based therapies aimed at stabilizing pathologic myocardium hold promise for translation to clinical therapy in the future.
