Ventricular Tachycardia Isthmus Characteristics: Insights from High-density Mapping.
Review in Arrhythmia & electrophysiology review, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
In the context of structural heart disease, ventricular tachycardia (VT) is related to surviving fibres in incomplete scar. New technologies which allow electroanatomic mapping at higher density and with smaller, more closely spaced electrodes have allowed new insights into the characteristics of VT circuits. VT isthmuses are complex structures, with multiple entrances, exits and dead ends of activation. The isthmus is frequently defined by regions of functional block and several VT circuits can be possible in a VT "critical zone". In this review, we discuss these new insights and how they may improve VT ablation strategies, as well as discussing emerging technologies which may further develop our understanding.
