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

Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are implicated in the pathogenesis of vascular disease. In previous studies we have found increased deposition of N(e)-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) in intramyocardial vasculature in the heart in acute myocardial infarction and myocarditis. It is known that the process of inflammation plays a role in the formation of AGEs. In this study we have explored the presence of CML (a major AGE) in the heart of patients with epicarditis using a monoclonal anti-CML antibody. Nine patients with epicarditis (n = 9) died and their hearts were used for this study, control were hearts from patients who died from conditions unrelated to heart disease and without signs of myocarditis or epicarditis CML deposition and complement were significantly increased in patients with epicarditis compared to control hearts. Thus epicarditis increases CML depositions in the intramyocardial vasculature.
