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 structure and function of the heart needs to be understood in three dimensions. We give a brief historical summary of the methods by which such an understanding has been sought, and some practical details of the relatively new technique of micro-CT with iodine contrast enhancement in samples from rat and rabbit. We discuss how the improved anatomical detail available in fixed cadaveric hearts will enhance our ability to model and to understand the integrated function of the cardiomyocytes, conducting tissues, and fibrous supporting structures that generate the pumping function of the heart.
