Unraveling the Gordian knot of coronary pressure-flow autoregulation.
Review in Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
The coronary circulation has the inherent ability to maintain myocardial perfusion constant over a wide range of perfusion pressures. The phenomenon of pressure-flow autoregulation is crucial in response to flow-limiting atherosclerotic lesions which diminish coronary driving pressure and increase risk of myocardial ischemia and infarction. Despite well over half a century of devoted research, understanding of the mechanisms responsible for autoregulation remains one of the most fundamental and contested questions in the field today. The purpose of this review is to highlight current knowledge regarding the complex interrelationship between the pathways and mechanisms proposed to dictate the degree of coronary pressure-flow autoregulation. Our group recently likened the intertwined nature of the essential determinants of coronary flow control to the symbolically unsolvable "Gordian knot". To further efforts to unravel the autoregulatory "knot", we consider recent challenges to the local metabolic and myogenic hypotheses and the complicated dynamic structural and functional heterogeneity unique to the heart and coronary circulation. Additional consideration is given to interrogation of putative mediators, role of K
