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

Background: The autonomic imbalance can negatively affect left ventricular (LV) remodeling following a myocardial infarction (MI). Ganglionated plexi (GP) play a crucial role in autonomic nervous system imbalance. Cardiac sympathetic afferent denervation (CSAD) has been shown to have beneficial effects in addressing this imbalance. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the ablation of cardiac sympathetic sensory neurons on LV remodeling. Resiniferatoxin (RTX), a neurotoxic transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV1) antagonist, was used to achieve it. Methods and Results: A total of 31 beagle dogs were randomly assigned to three groups: MI group ( Conclusions: In conscious dogs with healed MI, CSAD led to a reduction in cardiac sympathetic tone and an improvement in ventricular remodeling. This suggests that targeting cardiac sympathetic sensory neurons through CSAD may have therapeutic benefits in managing LV remodeling after MI.
