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

Cardiac fibrosis often has adverse cardiovascular effects, including heart failure, sudden death, and malignant arrhythmias. However, there is no targeted therapy for cardiac fibrosis. Inflammation is known to play a crucial role in the disorder, and the NLR pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is closely associated with innate immunity. Therefore, further understanding the pathophysiological role of the inflammasome in cardiac fibrosis may provide novel strategies for the prevention and treatment of the disorder. The aim of this review was to summarize the present knowledge of NLRP3 inflammasome-related mechanisms underlying cardiac fibrosis and to suggest potential targeted therapy that could be used to treat the condition.
