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

backgroundHomeostasis between heart rate and blood pressure is based on several interacting regulatory reflexes, which become influenced by fingolimod initiation. The aim of this study was to determine the sequence of changes in cardiovascular autonomic regulation after fingolimod initiation.

methodsTwenty-seven patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis underwent continuous electrocardiogram recording during the first 6 hr after the first dose of fingolimod. In addition to the time interval between two consecutive R-peaks (RR interval), blood pressure and heart rate variability (HRV) were measured on hourly basis. Cardiac parasympathetic and sympathetic regulation were assessed by the different components of HRV.

resultsHRV demonstrated an enhancement in cardiac parasympathetic regulation starting 1 hr after the first dose of fingolimod. Blood pressure started to decrease 2 hr and sympathetic cardiac regulation 3 hr after fingolimod initiation. Recovery in RR interval, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as in cardiac autonomic regulation started after 5 hr postdose, whereas pulse pressure (difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure) continued to increase at the time of hospital discharge.

conclusionsRR interval, blood pressure, as well as the parasympathetic and sympathetic components of cardiac autonomic regulation alter sequentially in different temporal pattern after fingolimod initiation. These findings enhance the understanding of the effects of fingolimod initiation on cardiovascular autonomic regulation in real life.
