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

Although cardiac lymphatic vessels have received increasing attention in recent years, there is still a knowledge gap between cardiac lymphatics and heart homeostasis in a normal heart. In the present study, we established a mouse model of cardiac lymphatic insufficiency ablating cardiac lymphatic collector vessels to reveal the crucial role of cardiac lymphatic vessels in maintaining cardiac homeostasis and the impact on cardiac function both in physiological and pathologic settings. Furthermore, therapeutic lymphangiogenesis improved the adverse effect on cardiac morphologic changes and functions. These findings suggest that the cardiac lymphatic system would be a novel therapeutic target for heart disease.
