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

Successfully incorporating genetic testing into clinical practice to prevent sudden cardiac death (SCD) requires (1) appropriate recognition of an inherited cardiovascular condition, (2) identification of appropriate family members at risk and for genetic testing, (3) selection of the appropriate genetic test and information about the expected diagnostic yield, (4) understanding the complexity of result interpretation and distinct handling of incidental findings and (5) providing effective communication and medical advice regarding the genetic and medical results and implications to the patient and his family. Molecular autopsy in SCD victims will be of future importance to determine the cause of death. Interdisciplinary patient care should be provided in specialized centers with a high level of cardiogenetic expertise and is recommended to provide precise and individualized patient management.
