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 purposes of this study were to characterize and quantify concordance between consecutive atrial and ventricular activation time points through analysis of phases and to explore its association with outcomes in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Patients with structural heart disease and dual-chamber ICDs underwent 5min baseline right ventricular (V) near-field and atrial (A) electrogram (EGM) recording. The cross-dependencies of phase dynamics of the changes in consecutive A (AA') and V (VV') were quantified and the AV phase dependency index was determined. In Cox regression analysis, a high AV phase index (in the highest quartile, >0.259) was significantly associated with higher risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmias (HR 2.84; 95% CI 1.05-7.67; P=0.04). In conclusion, in ICD patients with structural heart disease, high sinus AV phase dependency index on EGM is associated with the risk of ventricular arrhythmia.
