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

The Brugada syndrome (BrS) is characterized by a typical electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern of right precordial ST-segment elevation and the cardinal symptoms syncope and sudden cardiac death as clinical correlate of malignant ventricular arrhythmias in young adults without structural heart disease. The diagnosis of a type 1 Brugada-ECG is based on the documentation of a coved-type (≥ 0.2 mV) ST elevation followed by a negative T wave. The use of the ECG criteria postulated in the consensus of 2012 is helpful to distinguish between saddleback-type 2 (or type 3) J point/ST elevation and incomplete right bundle branch block. Spontaneous or drug-induced type 1 ST elevation can frequently only be detected in a single right precordial lead (V1 or V2), occurs sometimes together with a type 2 (or type 3) pattern in one and the same 12-lead ECG and can sometimes only be seen in modified right precordial leads. The ST elevation is less pronounced in females. Spontaneous and exercise-induced type 1 ST elevation, fragmented QRS complex, prolonged PR interval (> 200 ms), QRS prolongation in V2 (≥ 120 ms) and markers of an increased heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization are associated with an increased arrhythmic risk. The occurrence of spontaneous or dynamic type 1 ST elevation, a macroscopic T wave alternans or pronounced inferior (lateral) J point/ST elevation are signs of acute electrical instability.
