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

purposeHeart rate response to deep breathing (HRDB), which depends on the integrity of cardiac vagal preganglionic neurons and efferent fibers, and the function of sural nerve fibers are both associated with an age-related decline process. The aim of this study was to determine whether the effects attributed to aging on cardiovagal and sural nerve function decline are associated.

methodsHRDB and sural sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude, latency, and conduction velocity (SCV) were measured in one hundred healthy asymptomatic subjects (aged 14-92 years, 41 women). Multiple and simple linear regressions were used to analyze the relationships between the variables.

resultsThere were significant linear relationships between sural SNAP amplitude and HRDB with age. There was also a significant linear relationship between sural SNAP amplitude and HRDB (correlation coefficient 0.46, p<0.0001), but the model explained only 21.5 % of the variability in HRDB.

conclusionCardiovagal function assessed by HRDB is associated with sural SNAP amplitude in healthy subjects. Age-related decline only partially explained the variability seen in the association. Other genetic and environmental factors may also play a role.
