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

introductionThe efficacy of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in atrial fibrillation (AF) is well documented. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with AF, mainly in the 4q25 locus, but also in 16q22 and 1q21. The aim of our study was to test the association between those SNPs and short- and long-term results of PVI. MATERIAL AND

methodsPatients with AF who underwent PVI between 2006 and 2009 were included in the study. Pulmonary vein isolation was performed using a 4-mm non-irrigated ablation catheter, circular mapping catheter, and the LocaLisa system. All patients were genotyped for the 4q25, 16q22, and 1q21 SNPs.

resultsTwo-hundred and thirty-eight patients were included. The median follow-up was 45 months. Six-month efficacy was 59.7%. None of the polymorphisms was linked with the risk of AF recurrence after 6 months in univariate analysis. In multivariate analysis rs2200733 in the recessive model was linked significantly with AF recurrence (odds ratio 1.87, p = 0.008). None of the polymorphisms predicted AF recurrence in long-term follow-up.

conclusionsThere is a trend in the relationship between TT genotype of the rs2200733 polymorphism and increased rate of AF recurrence after PVI in short-term (6 months) follow-up. None of the tested SNPs 4q25, 16q22, and 1q21 correlated with the results of a single AF ablation in long-term follow-up.
