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

purpose of reviewThe dicrotic notch (DN) has long been considered a marker of arterial stiffness and compliance. Herein, we explored the recent developments in vascular medicine research in an attempt to assess the DN utility in clinical cardiovascular medicine. RECENT

findingsSince its discovery, several studies have attempted to measure the changes in different parameters of the DN in physiological and pathological states. Despite the significance of their findings, the clinical role of the DN remained limited. This may have been related to the difficulty of measuring the DN via indwelling arterial catheters in the past. However, over the past two decades, several non-invasive methods have been developed, which may re-ignite interest in DN research. The DN may have broader applications in clinical cardiovascular medicine. Further research is needed to establish the accuracy of DN non-invasive measurement methods and compare its prognostic value to other circulatory parameters.
