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 and purposeCarvedilol is a clinically effective β-blocker broadly used for treating congestive heart failure (CHF), and several clinical trials have demonstrated that it shows a favourable effect compared with other β-blockers in patients with CHF. The mechanism underlying this beneficial effect of carvedilol compared to other β-blockers is not clearly understood. In addition to β-blockers, inhibitors of hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide (HCN)-gated channels, which play a critical role in spontaneous rhythmic activity in the heart, have also been proposed to be suitable drugs for reducing heart rate and, therefore, beneficial for treating CHF. In the present study, we investigated the effect of carvedilol on HCN channels. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were used to assess the effect of carvedilol on currents from wild-type and mutant HCN1, HCN2 and HCN4 channels expressed in CHO cells. KEY

resultsCarvedilol was the only β-blocker tested that showed inhibitory effects on the major sinoatrial HCN channel isoform HCN4. Carvedilol inhibited HCN4 in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Carvedilol is a negative gating modulator of HCN channels. It represents a novel structure for future drug design of HCN channel inhibitors.
