Biochemical, demographic, and self-reported tobacco-related predictors of the acute heart rate response to nicotine in smokers.
Article in Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Understanding the stimulatory effects of nicotine on cardiovascular function in humans is of great interest given the wide-spread use of different forms of combustible and smokeless products that deliver nicotine. An intravenous nicotine infusion procedure was used to evaluate factors associated with the acute heart rate (HR) response to nicotine (0.5 mg per 70 kg bodyweight) in a sample of 213 smokers. We tested for differential response to nicotine based on demographic characteristics (race [European American vs African America], sex, body mass index and age); a set of blood-based biomarkers (baseline nicotine, cotinine and cortisol levels and nicotine metabolite ratio); and a set of self-reported measures related to tobacco use. Nicotine infusion was first noted to increase HR approximately 10 beats per minute (95% CI: 7.8-12.3) one minute post-infusion, and 13 beats per minute (95% CI: 11.0-15.2) two minutes post-infusion. Higher cortisol, lower nicotine levels, higher nicotine metabolite ratio, being female and greater withdrawal symptoms were independently associated with a potentiated increase in HR 1 or 2 min after nicotine infusion. Factors associated with the acute HR effects of nicotine warrant further investigation given their potential to inform the development of nicotine delivery systems as tobacco harm reduction approaches for smokers.
