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

Background: Histiocytoid cardiomyopathy is a rare infancy cardiac disorder manifesting as severe cardiac arrhythmias or dilated cardiomyopathy. There is no specific treatment for these arrhythmias. This is the first report of infantile histiocytoid cardiomyopathy whose refractory ventricular arrhythmias were successfully controlled by high-dose carvedilol. Case summary: A 4-month-old girl presented with asystole, and recurrent ventricular tachycardias. From the histological findings and clinical symptoms, she was diagnosed as histiocytoid cardiomyopathy. Sedatives were the most effective therapy for her arrhythmia, but the cardiac sympathetic denervation was not effective enough. Finally, her ventricular arrhythmias were controlled with high-dose carvedilol, and she was discharged on hospitalization Day 393. Discussion: Carvedilol is the only beta blocker that directly acts on the ryanodine receptor (RyR2) and inhibits store-overload-induced Ca
