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

Arrhythmia subcellular mechanisms are constantly being explored. Recent knowledge has shown that travelling Ca(2+) waves in cardiac cells are critical for delayed afterdepolarisations and in some cases, early afterdepolarisations. In this review, we comment on the properties of cardiac Ca(2+) waves and abnormal Ca(2+) releases in terms of properties used to describe electrical waves; propagation, excitability and refractoriness.
