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

Pacing postconditioning (PPC) induces cardioprotection. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal pacing algorithm and possible influence of gender and diabetes on PPC. Unprotected regional ischemia for 30 min served as negative control and classical PPC (ten cycles of 30 s left ventricular pacing alternated with 30 s right atrial pacing) as positive control. Area at risk and infarct size were determined by blue dye and triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. For achieving protection, the minimal number of PPC cycles was seven and the minimal duration of a PPC protocol was 200 s. The protective effect of PPC was comparable in male and female hearts, but no protection could be induced by PPC in diabetic hearts. PPC can provide myocardial protection when using at least seven cycles of ventricular pacing. PPC protection is independent of gender, but sensitive to experimental diabetes.
