Dynamical behavior analysis of the heart system by the bifurcation structures.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The functioning of the heart rhythm can exhibit a wide variety of dynamic behaviours under certain conditions. In the case of rhythm disorders or cardiac arrhythmias, the natural rhythm of the heart is usually involved in the sinoatrial node, the atrioventricular node, the atria of the carotid sinus, etc. The study of heart related disorders requires an important analysis of its rhythm because the regularity of cardiac activity is conditioned by a large number of factors. The cardiac system is made up of a combination of nodes ranging from the sinus node, the atrioventricular node to its Purkinje bundles, which interact with each other via communicative aspects. Due to the nature of their respective dynamics, the above are treated as self-oscillating elements and modelled by nonlinear oscillators. By modelling the cardiac conduction system as a model of three nonlinear oscillators coupled by delayed connections and subjected to external stimuli depicting the behavior of a pacemaker, its dynamic behavior is studied in this paper by nonlinear analysis tools. From an electrocardiogram (ECG) assessment, the heart rhythm reveals normal and pathological rhythms. Three forms of ventricular fibrillation, ventricular flutter, ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation are observed. The results are confirmed by the respective maximum Lyapunov exponents. Considering the cardiac nodes as microchips, using microcontroller simulation technology, the cardiac conduction system was modelled as a network of four ATmega 328P microcontrollers. A similarity with the results obtained numerically can be observed.
