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

Cardiac ion channels are critical transmembrane proteins that mediate almost all aspects of cardiac function including generation and propagation of cardiac action potential (AP) as well as maintenance of normal heart excitability and contraction. In addition, the pivotal role of cardiac ion channels in cardiac health and disease is underscored by the profound effects of their dysfunctional mutations on various arrhythmias. Hence, ion channels are vital targets for antiarrhythmic drugs. In this review, we first summarize the characteristics, structure of the various cardiac ion channels and their specific roles in cardiac electrophysiology. Subsequently, we highlight the implications of genetic mutations that disrupt ion channel function, which are associated with inherited cardiac arrhythmias. Finally, we address antiarrhythmic drugs acting on cardiac ion channels respectively, according to their therapeutic targets. In conclusion, this manuscript aims to review the physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology of the most prominent ventricular Na
