[Mapping and ablation of cardiac arrhythmias : Never forget where you are coming from].
Review in Herzschrittmachertherapie & Elektrophysiologie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
With the rapid development of new mapping and imaging technologies as well as catheter ablation technologies, it is increasingly important to understand the basic concepts of conventional mapping and ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. Prerequisite for successful ablation is the exact identification of the tachycardia mechanism and subsequent localization of the origin or tachycardic substrate. Only intracardiac electrograms provide decisive information regarding activation time and signal morphology. In some arrhythmias, it is necessary to supplement conventional mapping with so-called pace and/or entrainment mapping. This article aims to discuss and demonstrate the fundamentals of intracardiac mapping as it relates to the mapping and ablation of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias based on representative clinical cases. Modern three-dimensional mapping methods make it possible to individually optimize established ablation strategies with significantly better spatial resolution. The authors aimed to demonstrate that intracardiac uni- and bipolar electrograms provide essential information about timing and morphology guiding successful catheter ablation. Furthermore, our article provides useful information about conventional cardiac mapping techniques including activation mapping, pace mapping, and individual substrate mapping.
