Boundary Layers and the Distribution of Membrane Forces Predicted by the Mechanical Bidomain Model.
Article in Mechanics research communications, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The mechanical bidomain model is a mathematical description of the elastic properties of cardiac tissue. The unique feature of the bidomain model is that it is a macroscopic continuum representation of tissue that nevertheless accounts for the intracellular and extracellular spaces individually, thereby focusing on mechanical forces arising across the cell membrane. In this paper, the mechanical bidomain model describes a two-dimensional sheet of cardiac tissue undergoing a uniform active tension. At the boundary, the tissue sheet is free to move. Analytical solutions are found for the intracellular and extracellular displacements and pressures. The model predicts that membrane forces, which may be responsible for phenomena such as mechanotransduction and remodeling, are large near the tissue boundary, and fall off rapidly with distance from the boundary.
