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: Atrial fibrillation often follows myocardial infarction (MI) and is associated with increased risks of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Obesity is a potent risk factor for both MI and atrial fibrillation. Objective: This study aimed to understand whether MI and obesity have a synergistic impact on atrial remodeling. Methods: Lean (sham n = 3; MI n = 12) and obese (sham n = 3; MI n = 9) Göttingen minipigs (MI group) underwent a 120-minute balloon occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery. After 8 weeks, myocardial tissue was collected from 4 distinct left and right atrial sites for histologic analysis. Results: Obese animals have a significantly higher amount of atrial adipose tissue than lean animals at all 4 sites (right atrium [RA] Conclusion: Obesity is the primary driver of atrial adipose tissue remodeling both in and around the atria. MI had no effect on atrial remodeling at any site in either lean or obese animals.
