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
Myocardial sleeves around caval and pulmonary veins have ectopic activity, which is the main cause of atrial arrhythmias. The morphological and electrophysiological properties of this myocardium differ from those of the atria, but its mechanical activity in large animals has not been studied. We compared the phosphorylation of sarcomere proteins and the functional characteristics of myosin from the left and right atria, superior vena cava, and pulmonary veins of the porcine heart. Myosin from myocardial sleeves contains more of the β-isoform of the heavy chain, i.e., is characterized by slower kinetics of cross-bridge attachment/detachment than atrial myosin. In myocardial sleeves, phosphorylation of troponin T and I, and tropomyosin was lower than in the atria. The phosphorylation features of thin filament proteins may affect the mechanical characteristics of cardiomyocyte contraction, as well as the mechanisms, regulating myocardial contraction, such as the length-dependent regulation and the mechanoelectrical feedback.
