Recording Intrinsic Nerve Activity at the Sinoatrial Node in Normal Dogs With High-Density Mapping.
Article in Circulation. Arrhythmia and electrophysiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundIt is known that autonomic nerve activity controls the sinus rate. However, the coupling between local nerve activity and electrical activation at the sinoatrial node (SAN) remains unclear. We hypothesized that we would be able to record nerve activity at the SAN to investigate if right stellate ganglion (RSG) activation can increase the local intrinsic nerve activity, accelerate sinus rate, and change the earliest activation sites.
methodsHigh-density mapping of the epicardial surface of the right atrium including the SAN was performed in 6 dogs during stimulation of the RSG and after RSG stellectomy. A radio transmitter was implanted into 3 additional dogs to record RSG and local nerve activity at the SAN.
resultsHeart rate accelerated from 108±4 bpm at baseline to 125±7 bpm after RSG stimulation (
conclusionsLocal intrinsic nerve activity can be recorded at the SAN. Short bursts of these local nerve activities are present before each atrial activation during heart rate acceleration induced by stimulation of the RSG.
