Acute and one year outcome of premature ventricular contraction ablation guided by contact force and automated pacemapping software.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundRadiofrequency (RF) ablation is a well-established approach to treat premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and is associated with good outcomes.
aimThe present study sought to analyze the acute efficacy and 1-year outcomes of PVC ablation using RF technology with an approach based on automated pace-mapping and contact force (CF) information.
methodsSixty-one consecutive patients (52.4% males, age 45.9 ± 12.5) underwent catheter ablation for symptomatic monomorphic PVC. All procedures were guided by a 3-dimensional mapping system; site of ablation was selected based on PASO
resultsThe PVC ablation was performed in the right ventricular outflow tract in 37 patients (60.7%), left ventricle in 15 patients (24.6%), coronary cusps in 6 patients (9.8%), right ventricle in 3 patients (4.9%); PVC ablation was acutely successful in 59 of patients (96.7%). At 1-year efficacy was obtained in 57 patients (93.4%). No major complications occurred. Mean procedural and fluoroscopy time were 94.5 ± 20.9 and 4.3 ± 2.5 minutes respectively.
conclusionPremature ventricular contraction RF ablation mainly guided by PASO
