Carotid Artery Revascularization Improves Cardiac Sympathetic Nerve Activity in Patients With Carotid Artery Stenosis.
Article in Cardiology research, 2022. 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
Background: The carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex controls the neural regulation of blood pressure. Baroreceptor disorders due to carotid sinus atherosclerosis have detrimental cardiovascular effects. This study investigated the medium-term effects of carotid artery revascularization (CAR) on sympathetic and cardiac function and systemic blood pressure variability in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Methods: This study included 21 consecutive patients (median age 70 years, 18 men) with carotid artery stenosis scheduled for CAR. Results: All 21 enrolled patients underwent CAR. Carotid artery stenting was done in three patients with cardiovascular risk or anatomical difficult for carotid endarterectomy. The mean common carotid artery end-diastolic velocity improved significantly (P < 0.01) by 1.6-fold, from 10.8 ± 3.2 to 16.1 ± 7.1 cm/s. In Conclusions: CAR in patients with carotid stenosis may provide medium-term improvement in cardiac sympathetic nerve activity and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.
