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

Diabetes (DM) patients have an increased risk (~50%) for sudden cardiac death (SCD), mostly as a result of ventricular arrhythmias. The molecular mechanisms involved remain partially defined. The potent proinflammatory lipid mediator leukotriene (LT) B4, is pathologically elevated in DM compared to nondiabetic patients, resulting in increased LTB4 accumulation in heart, leading to an increased risk for life-threatening proarrhythmic signatures. We used electrophysiology, immunofluorescence, and confocal microscopy approaches to evaluate LTB4 cellular effects in guinea pig heart and ventricular myocytes. We have observed that LTB4 is increased in multiple mouse models (C57BL/6 J/Lep
