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

An increase in left ventricular volume after a myocardial infarction is a key component of the adverse remodelling process leading to chamber dysfunction, heart failure and an unfavourable outcome. Hence, the therapeutic strategies have been designed to reverse the remodelling process by medical therapy, devices or surgical strategies. Surgical ventricular reconstruction primarily combined with myocardial revascularization has been introduced as an optional intervention aimed to reduce the left ventricle through resection of the scar tissue and is recommended in selected patients with predominant heart failure symptoms, and with myocardial scarring and moderate left ventricular remodelling. This review outlines the rationale and the technique for reconstructing the left ventricle and the possible indications for using that technique, based on experiences from the centre with the largest international experience. The major contributions in the literature are briefly discussed.
