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.
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
introductionPlasma troponin I (TnI) concentration is a well-established and widely-used marker of myocardial damage.
aimTo determine the correlation between TnI concentration measured within the first 4 days following heart transplantation (HTX) and clinical course, with consideration of hemodynamic performance. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe retrospective study included 54 patients (12-62 years) who underwent HTX. TnI levels were assessed over the first 4 post-operative days. Hemodynamic parameters were assessed daily at Swan-Ganz catheterization and echocardiography. The number of required inotropic drugs was also analyzed.
resultsThere is a strong and positive correlation between the mean TnI levels and the mean number of required inotropic drugs (r = 0.51, p = 0.00), and also mean central venous pressure (CVP) (r = 0.33, p = 0.015). A weak trend towards a positive correlation between the mean values of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and the mean plasma TnI levels was observed. There was no correlation between mean TnI levels and mean values of ejection fraction (EF) and cardiac output (CO). Detailed analysis showed a statistically significant correlation between TnI levels on days 3 and 4 after HTX and PCWP on the preceding days (r = 0.32, p = 0.04; r = 0.46, p = 0.006 respectively). Furthermore, a strong, inverse correlation between TnI levels on day 3 and CO on day 4 following HTX was observed (r = -0.44, p = 0.03).
conclusionsPlasma TnI could be a useful marker for assessing the hemodynamic function after HTX.
