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

The mechanical response of the heart to myocardial stretch has been understood since the work of muscle physiologists more than 100 years ago, whereby an increase in ventricular chamber filling during diastole increases the subsequent force of contraction. The stretch-induced increase in contraction is biphasic. There is an abrupt increase in the force that coincides with the stretch (the rapid response), which is then followed by a slower response that develops over several minutes (the slow force response, or SFR). The SFR is associated with a progressive increase in the magnitude of the Ca
