Conduction in cardiac tissue. Historical reflections.
Review in Physiological reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain propagation of the action potential in heart. According to the gap junction hypothesis local short-circuit currents pass from the proximal depolarized cell to the distal inactive cell via gap junctions and are responsible for the depolarization of the distal cell. In the ephapse hypothesis the depolarization of the proximal cell generates an electrical field in the narrow cleft between cells resulting in depolarization beyond threshold of the distal cell.
