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

Inflammation not only plays a crucial role in acute ischemic cardiac injury, but also contributes to post-infarction repair and remodeling. Traditionally, neutrophils have been merely considered as detrimental in the setting of an acute myocardial infarction. However, recently published studies demonstrated that neutrophils might also play an important role in cardiac repair by regulating reparative processes. An emerging concept is that different neutrophil subsets exist, which might exhibit separate functional properties. In support of the existence of distinct neutrophil subsets in the ischemic heart, transcriptional changes in cardiac neutrophils have been reported within the first few days after myocardial infarction. In addition, there is an increasing awareness of sex-specific differences in many physiological and pathophysiological responses, including cardiovascular parameters and inflammation. Of particular interest in this context are recent experimental data dissecting sex-specific differences in neutrophil signaling after myocardial infarction. Unraveling the distinct and possibly stage-dependent properties of neutrophils in cardiac repair may provide new therapeutic strategies in order to improve the clinical outcome for myocardial infarction patients. This review will briefly discuss recent advances in our understanding of the neutrophil functional repertoire and emerging insights of sex-specific differences in post-myocardial infarction inflammatory responses.
