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

backgroundEvidence from a canine experimental acute myocardial infarction (MI) model shows that until the seventh week after MI, the relationship between stellate ganglion nerve activity (SGNA) and vagal nerve activity (VNA) progressively increases.

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate how autonomic nervous system activity influences temporal myocardial repolarization dispersion at this period.

methodsWe analyzed autonomic nerve activity as well as QT and RR variability from recordings previously obtained in nine dogs. From a total of 48 short-term ECG segments, 24 recorded before and 24 recorded 7 weeks after experimentally-induced MI, we obtained three indices of temporal myocardial repolarization dispersion: QTe (from Q-wave to T-wave end), QTp (from Q-wave to T-wave peak), and Te (from T-wave peak to T-wave end) variability index (QTeVI, QTpVI, TeVI). We also performed heart rate variability power spectral analysis on the same segments.

resultsAfter MI, all the QT variables increased QTeVI (median [interquartile range]) (from -1.76[0.82] to -1.32[0.68]), QTeVI (from -1.90[1.01] to -1.45[0.78]), and TeVI (from -0.72[0.67] to -0.22[1.00]), whereas all RR spectral indices decreased (P <.001 for all). Distinct circadian rhythms in QTeVI (P <.05,) QTpVI (P <.001) and TeVI (P <.05) appeared after MI with circadian variations resembling that of SGNA/VNA. The morning QTpVI and TeVI acrophases approached the SGNA/VNA acrophase. Conversely, the evening QTeVI acrophase coincided with another SGNA/VNA peak. After MI, regression analysis detected a positive relationship between SGNA/VNA and TeVI (R(2): 0.077; β: 0.278; p< 0.001).

conclusionTemporal myocardial repolarization dispersion shows a circadian variation after MI reaching its peak at a time when sympathetic is highest and vagal activity lowest.
