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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the accessory pathway location and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome.
methodsWe divided 102 WPW syndrome patients with normal left ventricular systolic function into four groups: those with manifest right (MR, n = 14), manifest septal (MS, n = 11), manifest left (ML, n = 30), and concealed (C, n = 47) accessory pathways. BNP level and electrophysiological properties, including difference in timing of the ventricular electrogram between the His bundle area and the distal coronary sinus area (His-CS delay), which indicate intraventricular dyssynchrony, were compared.
resultsBNP levels (pg/dl) were higher in the MR and MS groups than in the ML and C groups (MR, 64 ± 58; MS, 55 ± 45; ML, 17 ± 15; C, 25 ± 21; P < 0.001). AV intervals (ms) were shorter in the MR and MS groups than in the ML and C groups (MR, 76 ± 16; MS, 83 ± 6; ML, 101 ± 19; C, 136 ± 20; P < 0.001). His-CS delay (ms) was longer in the MR group than in the other groups (MR, 50 ± 15; MS, 21 ± 7; ML, 23 ± 10; C, 19 ± 8; P < 0.001). The AV interval (P < 0.01) and the His-CS delay (P < 0.001) were negatively and positively correlated, respectively, with the BNP level.
conclusionAnterograde conduction with a right or septal accessory pathway increased the BNP level in WPW syndrome patients with normal cardiac function.
