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

Using information theoretic measures, relations between heart rhythm, repolarization in the tissue of the heart, and the diastolic interval time series are analyzed. These processes are a fragment of the cardiovascular physiological network. A comparison is made between the results for 84 (42 women) healthy individuals and 65 (45 women) long QT syndrome type 1 (LQTS1) patients. Self-entropy, transfer entropy, and joint transfer entropy are calculated for the three time series and their combinations. The results for self-entropy indicate the well-known result that regularity of heart rhythm for healthy individuals is larger than that of QT interval series. The flow of information depends on the direction with the flow from the heart rhythm to QT dominating. In LQTS1 patients, however, our results indicate that information flow in the opposite direction may occur-a new result. The information flow from the heart rhythm to QT dominates, which verifies the asymmetry seen by Porta et al. in the variable tilt angle experiment. The amount of new information and self-entropy for LQTS1 patients is smaller than that for healthy individuals. However, information transfers from RR to QT and from DI to QT are larger in the case of LQTS1 patients.
