Anesthetic Management In Electrophysiology Laboratory: A Multidisciplinary Review.
Review in Journal of atrial fibrillation, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Many clinical challenges have been encountered in electrophysiology laboratories (EP) while implanting intracardiac defibrillators for lethal arrhythmias, using pacemakers for bradyarrhythmias, placing pacemakers with multiple leads in patients with heart failure and cardiac ablation procedures. In this environment, anesthesiology plays a very critical role to ensure patients comfort, as well as maintains operator's convenience and facilitate management of undesired situations. EP laboratories are mostly used for diagnosis of certain heart diseases. Meanwhile, with the exponential increase in interventional procedures in our decade, electrophysiologists' need to cooperate with the anesthesiologists more frequently. The literature is still unclear about the effects of anesthetic agents on cardiac conduction pathways, but as we know with our previous data, the most agents we are using currently have more or less effect on the cardiac conduction systems. In this review, we aimed to describe the safe anesthesia methods in cardiac diagnostic procedures and have a closer look up the anesthetic outcomes of these procedures. This article comprehensively reviews the anesthesia practice encountered in electrophysiology laboratories.
