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

Aims: Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a new promising ultrasound modality that enables non-invasive measurement of the dynamic myocardial stiffness. The impact of varying physiological conditions on SWE measurement of left ventricular (LV) myocardial stiffness remains poorly investigated. Methods and results: Nineteen sheep were evaluated during open-chest surgery. Epicardial multiframe SWE acquisitions were performed in short-axis view simultaneously with haemodynamic acquisitions during inferior vena cava occlusion, aortic clamping, atrial pacing, and ischaemia-reperfusion. The cyclic variation in the median value of LV myocardial stiffness ranged from 1.1 m/s in diastole (C Conclusion: In this study, LV diastolic myocardial stiffness C
