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

Recent studies suggest that metabolic dysregulation in patients with heart failure might contribute to myocardial contractile dysfunction. To understand the correlation between function and energy metabolism, we studied the impact of different fuel substrates on human nonfailing or failing cardiomyocytes. Consistent with the concept of metabolic flexibility, nonfailing myocytes exhibited excellent contractility in all fuels provided. However, impaired contractility was observed in failing myocytes when carbohydrates alone were used but was improved when additional substrates were added. This study demonstrates the functional significance of fuel utilization shifts in failing human cardiomyocytes.
