1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAt present, there is no established national minimum data set (MDS) for electrophysiology study (EPS) ablation, which has led to a lack of standardization and variable assessment criteria in this context.

objectiveThe objective of this paper was to develop a MDS of EPS ablation as means of establishing an information management system or clinical registry in this field.

methodsIn this cross-sectional and descriptive study, national and international cardiovascular scientific literature were studied to establish an initial set of data elements. In order to its validity, the population study composed of 15 cardiac electrophysiologists who asked to review the proposed data elements and score them in order of importance using a five-point Likert scale. The items scored as important or highly important by at least 60% of the experts (average score of 3 and higher) were included in the final list of MDS.

resultsAn MDS of cardiac EPS ablation was created with nine data classes, including administrative data, past medical history, sign and symptoms, physical examinations, laboratory tests, presenting status of heart conduction system, catheter ablation, postprocedure complications, and discharge outcomes. For each category, required variables data and possible respondents were determined.

conclusionsConsensus was reached on a set of core data elements to standardize data collection for cardiac EPS ablation in order to achieve quality improvement and effectiveness indicators for the management of care process and health outcomes.
