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

During hypoxia cardiac contraction declines and there is an intracellular acidosis. We find that, if this acidosis is abolished by decreasing pCO2 there is little restoration of force. Therefore the acidosis is not the major cause of the decline of force. The acidosis may partly result from the generation of lactic acid. No acidosis, is however, seen in isolated cardiac cells. Furthermore a theoretical model shows that lactic acid production would be expected to produce a transient acidosis. We suggest that the observed maintained acidosis may be a consequence of extracellular lactic acid accumulation affecting intracellular pH.
