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

Renewed interest in the four-electrode method for identification of passive electrical properties in cardiac tissue has been sparked by a recognition that measurements made with sensors in close proximity are frequency dependent. Therefore, resolution of four-electrode microimpedance spectra (4EMS) may provide an opportunity for routine identification of passive electrical properties for the interstitial and intracellular compartments using only interstitial access. The present study documents a structural framework in which the tissue resistivity (ρt) and reactivity (xt) that comprise spectra are computed using interstitial and intracellular microimpedance distributions that account for differences in compartment size, anisotropic electrical properties in each compartment and electrode separations. We used this framework to consider 4EMS development with relatively wide (d=1 mm) and fine (d=250 μm) electrode separations and sensors oriented along myocyte axes, across myocyte axes and intermediate between those axes.
