Arteries are finely tuned thermosensors regulating myogenic tone and blood flow.

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
In response to changing blood pressure, arteries adjust their caliber to control blood flow. This vital autoregulatory property, termed vascular myogenic tone, stabilizes downstream capillary pressure. Here, we reveal that tissue temperature, combined with intraluminal pressure, critically determines myogenic tone. Heating steeply activates tone in skeletal muscle, gut, brain, and skin arteries with temperature coefficients (
