Electrophysiological Basis for Early Repolarization Syndrome.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
During last centuries, Early Repolarization pattern has been interpreted as an ECG manifestation not linked to serious cardiovascular events. This view has been challenged on the basis of sporadic clinical observations that linked the J-wave with ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. The particular role of this characteristic pattern in initiating ventricular fibrillation has been sustained by clinical descriptions of a marked and consistent J-wave elevation preceding the onset of the ventricular arrhythmia. Until now, Early Repolarization syndrome patients have been evaluated using ECG and theorizing different interpretations of the findings. Nonetheless, ECG analysis is not able to reveal all depolarization and repolarization properties and the explanation for this clinical events. Recent studies have characterized the epicardial substrate in these patients on the basis of high-resolution data, in an effort to provide insights into the substrate properties that support arrhythmogenicity in these patients. An overview for the current evidence supporting different theories explaining Early Repolarization Syndrome is provided in this review. Finally, future developments in the field directed toward individualized treatment strategies are examined.
