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

Here we test the hypothesis that continuous nicotine exposure throughout pre- and postnatal development (developmental nicotine exposure, DNE) alters the cardiovascular structure and function in neonatal and juvenile rats. Echocardiography showed that DNE reduced left ventricular mass, left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) diameter, and posterior wall thickness, but only in females. Both male and female DNE rats had a lower end-systolic volume, higher ejection fraction, and increased fractional shortening, with unchanged stroke volume and cardiac output. Left ventricular single cardiac myocytes from male and female DNE animals exhibited increased calcium-evoked maximal tension with no effect on EC
