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

Heart failure (HF) has been traditionally viewed as a disease of the cardiac muscle associated with systemic inflammation. Burgeoning evidence implicates immune effector mechanisms that include immune cell activation and trafficking to the heart. Immune cell infiltration in the myocardium can have adverse effects in the heart and contribute to the pathogenesis of HF. Both innate and adaptive immunity operate sequentially, and the specificity of these responses depends on the initial trigger sensed by the heart. Although the role of the immune system in the initial inflammatory response to infection and injury is well studied, what sets the trajectory to HF from different etiologies and the role of immunity once HF has been established is less understood. Herein, we review experimental and clinical knowledge of cardiac inflammation induced by different triggers that often result in HF from different etiologies. We focus on the mechanisms of immune cell activation systemically and on the pathways immune cells use to traffic to the heart.
