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

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. Halofuginone (HF) exerts beneficial effects on organ fibrosis, periodontitis, and cancer. However, the effect of HF against AF remains unknown. During the induction of AF, the rats were intragastrically administered HF (5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg) daily for 7 consecutive days. Cardiac function was evaluated through echocardiographic analysis. The presence of pathological changes and interstitial fibrosis in the left atrial tissues were investigated. Intracellular Ca
