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

objectivesHeart rate variability (HRV) has been shown to represents a promising quantitative marker of autonomic activity. Studies have shown that diabetic patients and animal models have derangements in certain biochemical parameters with reduced cardiac nerve density following development of diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy (DCAN). This study, therefore, aims to correlate HRV indices, cardiac histology, and cardiac nerve density with selected biochemical markers in the DCAN rat model using high fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) induction.

methodsDCAN was induced in Wistar rats using HFD for 8 weeks with 25 mg/kg STZ daily for 5 days. DCAN features were then assessed using Holter electrocardiography (ECG), invasive biomarkers, and cardiac histology.

resultsDCAN group had significantly higher advanced glycated end product levels (

conclusionHRV is a cheap and easy tool for assessing DCAN that significantly correlates with markers of autonomic activity. Holter ECG and HRV evaluation should be considered early in patients with diabetes.
