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
Background: Patients with heart failure frequently develop mechanical dyssynchrony, which impairs ventricular function, coronary perfusion and their interactions. The underlying mechanisms, however, remain poorly understood due to numerous confounding factors. The objective of this study was to determine the acute effects of mechanical dyssynchrony on global and regional left ventricular (LV) function, coronary perfusion and their interactions based on experimental and computational approaches. Methods: Mechanical dyssynchrony was created with right ventricular apical pacing in Yorkshire domestic swine (n = 9). The heart was paced at 100 and 140 bpm and the results were compared to right atrial pacing. An inverse finite element computational framework based on an animal-specific geometry of the LV and measurements was developed to investigate the effects of mechanical dyssynchrony on LV function and its correlation with regional coronary perfusion. Results: Cardiac dyssynchrony induced significant decrease in LV pressure, volume, dP/dt Conclusion: The computational model predicted reduction in global and regional contractility, and regional myocardial work done in the septum and LVFW with mechanical dyssynchrony are positively correlated with the corresponding decrease in experimentally measured regulated coronary flow in the LAD and LCX. These findings demonstrate that this interrelated mechanism between LV function and coronary flow in mechanical dyssynchrony may affect cardiac resynchronization therapy responder rate.
