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

To identify non-responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), various biomarkers have been proposed, but these attempts have not been successful to date. We tested the clinical applicability of computer simulation of CRT for the identification of non-responders. We used the multi-scale heart simulator "UT-Heart," which can reproduce the electrophysiology and mechanics of the heart based on a molecular model of the excitation-contraction mechanism. Patient-specific heart models were created for eight heart failure patients who were treated with CRT, based on the clinical data recorded before treatment. Using these heart models, bi-ventricular pacing simulations were performed at multiple pacing sites adopted in clinical practice. Improvement in pumping function measured by the relative change of maximum positive derivative of left ventricular pressure (%ΔdP/dt
