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

Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) is a model that mimics pressure overload-induced left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in mice. Alterations in immune cell functionality can promote cardiac and vascular remodeling. In the present study, we characterized the time course in innate immune cell dynamics in response to TAC in the different tissues of mice. It was determined whether TAC induces a characteristic leukocyte-driven immune response in the myocardium, aorta ascendens and descendens, spleen, blood, and draining lymph nodes supported by cytokine-driven chemotaxis in mice at 3, 6, and 21 days following surgery. We used complex flow cytometry staining combinations to characterize the various innate immune cell subsets and a multiplex array to determine cytokine concentrations in the serum. The results of the current study indicated that leukocytes accumulate in the myocardium and aorta ascendens in response to TAC. The leukocyte dynamics in the myocardium were dominated by the Ly6C
