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

introductionBrugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited cardiac arrhythmia syndrome characterized by ST-segment elevation in right precordial ECG leads and associated with sudden cardiac death in young adults. The ECG manifestations of BrS are often concealed but can be unmasked by sodium channel blockers and fever. Areas covered: Implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is first-line therapy for BrS patients presenting with prior cardiac arrest or documented VT. A pharmacological approach to therapy is recommended in cases of electrical storm, as an adjunct to ICD and as preventative therapy. The goal of pharmacological therapy is to produce an inward shift to counter the genetically-induced outward shift of ion channel current flowing during the early phases of the ventricular epicardial action potential. This is accomplished by augmentation of I
