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

background and purposeEnhanced late sodium current (late I EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Electrophysiological and antiarrhythmic effects of GS967 were evaluated in isolated canine ventricular cardiomyocytes and CAVB dogs with dofetilide-induced early afterdepolarizations (EADs) and TdP, respectively. Mapping of intramural cardiac electrical activity in vivo was conducted to study effects of GS967 on spatial dispersion of repolarization. KEY

resultsGS967 (IC CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: GS967 terminated all dofetilide-induced TdP without completely suppressing EADs and sEB in vitro and in vivo, respectively. The antiarrhythmic mode of action of GS967, through the reduction of spatial dispersion of repolarization, seems to predominantly impede the perpetuation of arrhythmic events into TdP rather than their initiating trigger.
