Serum Proteomic Profiling Implicates a Dysregulated Neurohormonal-Inflammatory Axis in Post-Fontan Sinus Tachycardia.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPostoperative sinus tachycardia is a poorly understood complication following the Fontan procedure. The molecular signaling cascades triggering acute tachycardia remain uncharacterized, limiting therapeutic innovation. Here, we present a retrospective study leveraging serum proteomics and machine learning to identify the molecular drivers of postoperative Fontan sinus tachycardia.
methodsWe integrated a clinically relevant ovine Fontan model with continuous telemetric heart rate monitoring and human patient data. Serum proteomics coupled with least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and Boruta machine learning algorithms were used to identify protein panels predictive of postoperative sinus tachycardia. Cross-species validation was performed by comparing proteomic signatures from sheep and pediatric patients undergoing Glenn or Fontan surgery.
resultsOvine Fontan animals demonstrated significant heart rate elevation beginning on postoperative day 1, peaking at postoperative day 3 (159.4±11.7 bpm versus preoperative, 105.3±10.5 bpm;
conclusionsThis study provides molecular evidence implicating a dysregulated neurohormonal-inflammatory axis in acute postoperative Fontan sinus tachycardia and establishes a foundation for developing targeted diagnostics and therapeutics for this complication.
