Article in Journal of neurotrauma, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03924388 (The Effects of Spinal Cord Stimulation on Autonomic Function in People With Spinal Cord Injury), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 papers.

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.

Abstract

Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) have been shown to exhibit systolic, and to a lesser extent, diastolic cardiac dysfunction. However, previous reports of cardiac dysfunction in this population are confounded by the changing loading conditions after SCI and as such, whether cardiac dysfunction per se is present is still unknown. Therefore, our aim was to establish if load-independent cardiac dysfunction is present after SCI, to understand the functional cardiac response to SCI, and to explore the changes within the cellular milieu of the myocardium. Here, we applied in vivo echocardiography and left-ventricular (LV) pressure-volume catheterization with dobutamine infusions to our Wistar rodent model of cardiac dysfunction 5 weeks following high (T2) thoracic contusion SCI, while also examining the morphological and transcriptional alterations of cardiomyocytes. We found that SCI significantly impairs systolic function independent of loading conditions (end-systolic elastance in control: 1.35 ± 0.15; SCI: 0.65 ± 0.19 mm Hg/μL). The reduction in contractile indices is accompanied by a reduction in width and length of cardiomyocytes as well as alterations in the LV extracellular matrix. Importantly, we demonstrate that the reduction in the rate (dP/dt
