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

Patients with cardiogenic shock due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treated with ECPELLA support have a poor prognosis. Impaired left ventricular (LV) wall motion is observed in both infarcted and non-infarcted areas. Therapeutic hypothermia and mechanical LV unloading have different myocardial protective effects. This study aimed to evaluate myocardial protective effects of moderate therapeutic hypothermia combined with mechanical LV unloading in non-infarcted areas using a porcine AMI model. The coronary artery was ligated, and an extracorporeal ventricular assist device was driven under mean left atrial pressure of 5 mmHg. Cooling was initiated via the thermostatic bath of ECMO 30 min after LAD ligation. Moderate therapeutic hypothermia (30-31 °C) was maintained for 2 h. The final evaluation was performed 30 min after rewarming. In the control group, LV fractional shortening (FS) and LV posterior wall motion score (WMS) were declined. In the hypothermia group, LVFS and LV posterior WMS were preserved. In the posterior wall of hypothermia group, mitochondria structure was maintained, reactive oxygen species production was reduced, and sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca
