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

In congestive heart failure (CHF), while resting parasympathetic activity becomes reduced, parasympathetically-mediated responses to stressors have not been described. This study aimed to (1) elucidate the effect of CHF on fear bradycardia, a parasympathetically-mediated response, and (2) examine if brain oxidative stress of CHF mediates fear bradycardia. White noise sound (WNS) exposure to conscious rats induced freezing behavior and elicited bradycardia. WNS exposure-elicited bradycardia was greater in rats with CHF than in controls. Superoxide dismutase mimetics administered in the lateral/ventrolateral midbrain periaqueductal gray (l/vlPAG), a region that contributes to the generation of fear bradycardia, had no effect on the bradycardia response in control and CHF rats. Dihydroethidium staining in situ showed that superoxide generation in the l/vlPAG of CHF rats was increased as compared to controls. These results demonstrate that CHF leads to the augmentation of fear bradycardia. Moreover, oxidative stress in the l/vlPAG of CHF unlikely mediates the augmented fear bradycardia.
