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

To determine the cause of death in myocardial ion channel diseases (MICD)-induced sudden cardiac death (SCD) cases is a difficulty in forensic identification practices. The majority of MICD-induced SCD cases would experience lethal ventricular tachyarrhythmia (LVTA) before deaths; thus, confirming the occurrence of LVTA in bodies can offer a key evidence to identify these cases. Several lipids in the myocardia were found disturbed after LVTA; yet, whether serum lipidome would be disrupted by LVTA is not clear. Therefore, we aimed to screen lipid feature and related diagnostic markers of LVTA in serum here. An aconitine-induced LVTA-SCD rat model was produced. Blood samples before LVTA and immediately after LVTA were retrieved and related serum specimens were used for ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS)-based lipidomics analyses. On the basis of the defined differential lipids, a lipid-related metabolic pathway network was constructed and potential biomarkers were screened. Twelve aconitine-induced LVTA rats were produced. Totally, 188 lipids in serum were disrupted during the LVTA-SCD process, which belong to 11 lipid classes. Most of the differential lipids were correlated, suggesting that they were interacted and that the changes were holistic during LVTA process. Ten lipid pathways were activated during LVTA process; the main lipid classes involved in these pathways were ceramide, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine. Phosphatidylcholine O-40:4, sphingomyelin d46:5, and phosphatidylethanolamine 40:4 were tested as potential diagnostic markers of LVTA-SCD event in serum. The current results indicate a substantial change in serum lipidome after LVTA-SCD; lipidomics holds promise to identify MICD-induced SCDs in forensic practices.
