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

Spiral wave dynamics in cardiac tissue are critically implicated in the pathogenesis of arrhythmias. This study investigates the effects of modulating calcium and potassium currents on spiral wave stability in a two-dimensional cardiac model. The gate variable that dynamically regulates the opening probability of ion channels also plays a significant role in the control of the spiral wave dynamics. We demonstrate that reducing gate variables accelerates wave propagation, thins spiral arms, and shortens action potential duration, ultimately inducing dynamic instability. Irregular electrocardiogram (ECG) patterns and altered action potential morphology further suggest an enhanced arrhythmogenic potential. These findings elucidate the ionic mechanisms underlying spiral wave breakup, providing both theoretical insights and practical implications for the development of targeted arrhythmia treatments.
