Novel approaches for the treatment of ventricular tachycardia.
Review in World journal of cardiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a crucial cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and a primary cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with structural cardiac disease. VT includes clinical disorders varying from benign to life-threatening. Most life-threatening episodes are correlated with coronary artery disease, but the risk of SCD varies in certain populations, with various underlying heart conditions, specific family history, and genetic variants. The targets of VT management are symptom alleviation, improved quality of life, reduced implantable cardioverter defibrillator shocks, prevention of reduction of left ventricular function, reduced risk of SCD, and improved overall survival. Antiarrhythmic drug therapy and endocardial catheter ablation remains the cornerstone of guideline-endorsed VT treatment strategies in patients with structural cardiac abnormalities. Novel strategies such as epicardial ablation, surgical cryoablation, transcoronary alcohol ablation, pre-procedural imaging, and stereotactic ablative radiotherapy are an appealing area of research. In this review, we gathered all recent advances in innovative therapies as well as experimental evidence focusing on different aspects of VT treatment that could be significant for future favorable clinical applications.
