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

backgroundPilsicainide, a pure Na

methodsThis study retrospectively enrolled 874 consecutive patients (543 men, 63.6±15.3 years old, and 57.9±16.5 kg of body weight), who were orally administered pilsicainide for AT management. We evaluated the relationship between DIPs and serum pilsicainide concentration, renal dysfunction (estimate glomerular filtration rate, eGFR), and electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters.

resultsAmong the patients, 154 (17.6%) had renal dysfunction (eGFR<50 mL/min), including 12 (1.4%) on hemodialysis. DIPs were present in 10 patients (1.1%): all had renal dysfunction, and one was on hemodialysis. The eGFR in DIP patients was significantly lower than that in the non-DIP patients (32.2±15.1

conclusionsDIPs caused by pilsicainide administration were strongly associated with renal dysfunction. Hence, confirmation of renal function would be necessary prior to and/or during the pilsicainide administration.
