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 objective of the study is to investigate the propagation of Ca(2+) waves in full-width cardiac myocytes and carry out sensitivity analysis to study the effects of various physiological parameters on global Ca(2+) waves. Based on the anomalous subdiffusion of Ca(2+) sparks, a mathematical model was proposed to characterize the Ca(2+) waves. The computed results were in agreement with the experimental measurements using confocal microscopy. This model includes variables of current through the Ca(2+) release unit (CRU; ICRU), duration of current flow through CRU (Topen), Ca(2+) sensitivity parameter (K), the longitudinal and transverse spatial separation of CRUs (lx and ly, where x denotes longitudinal direction (x-axis) and y denotes transverse direction (y-axis)) and Ca(2+) diffusion coefficients (Dx, Dy). The spatio-temporal mechanism of the anomalous Ca(2+) sparks led to results that were different from those based on Fick's law. The major findings were reported as: ICRU affected the dynamic properties of Ca(2+) waves more significantly than Topen; the effect of K on the properties of Ca(2+) waves was negligible; ly affected the amplitude significantly, but lx affected the longitudinal velocity significantly; in turn, the limitation and significance of the study are discussed.
