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

During an ECG-training course, a case of extreme respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) was found in a 19-year-old slender, female student who was not active in sports. The heart rate (HR) fluctuated from above 100 to below 60 beats per minute (bpm), often from one beat to the next. The pattern was repetitive and appeared to be linked to respiration, representing an extreme form of RSA. The initial recording of the HR and blood pressure (BP) by finger blood pressure showed concomitant drops in diastolic BP of up to 25 mmHg. The student agreed to participate in a short follow-up study, during which HR, BP, and respiration (measured by temperature and pCO
