Pathophysiology and Management of Arrhythmias Associated with Atrial Septal Defect and Patent Foramen Ovale.
Article in Arrhythmia & electrophysiology review, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Atrial septal defects (ASDs) are among the most common of congenital heart defects and are frequently associated with atrial arrhythmias. Atrial and ventricular geometrical remodelling secondary to the intracardiac shunt promotes evolution of the electrical substrate, predisposing the patient to atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias. Closure of an ASD reduces the immediate and long-term prevalence of atrial arrhythmias, but the evidence suggests that patients remain at an increased long-term risk in comparison with the normal population. The closure technique itself and its timing impacts future arrhythmia risk profile while subsequent transseptal access following surgical or device closure is complicated. Newer techniques combined with increased experience will help to alleviate some of the difficulties associated with optimal management of arrhythmias in these patients.
