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

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), a main cardiovascular complication of diabetes mellitus, can eventually develop into heart failure and seriously affect the prognosis of diabetic patients. Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is the main factor causing ventricular wall stiffness and heart failure in DCM. Early control of MF in DCM is of great significance to prevent or postpone the progression of DCM to heart failure. In this review, we systematically analyzed the relevant studies on diabetic MF in recent years, explored the formation mechanism of MF in the pathological process of DCM, and summarized and analyzed in detail the current studies with antifibrotic treatment for DCM, so as to provide guidance for the development of prevention and treatment strategies for MF in DCM.
