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

backgroundBlood pressure (BP) has been proven to play an important role in changes of the morphology of a pulse waveform. However, the extent of change of the morphology because of BP signaling has yet to be accurately confirmed.

objectivesThis study aims to disclose the accurate effect of BP on the changes in the morphology of the pulse waveform.

methodsTwo dogs' invasive intraventricular BP (varied by ejecting different doses of epinephrine) and their femoral arterial pulse waveform (FAPW) signals were synchronously recorded. For each BP increase, a normalized single cardiac beat pulse from the FAPW signal was fitted by five Gaussian curves and the changes in the Gaussian parameters (height, peak position, and time support) were observed.

resultsThe height parameter increased while the position and time support parameters decreased with increasing systolic BP (SBP). The height ratio and the peak intervals between the first two components decreased with increasing SBP.

conclusionsThese results may contribute to the better understanding of the underlying changes of arterial pulse properties at different BP levels and demonstrate the potential application value of the Gaussian fitting method for clinically assessing pulse morphology and evaluating the well-being of artery system.
