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

We present two symptomatic sisters who had a positive family history of sudden death. None of them had structural heart disease. In the 25-year-old proband, complex ventricular arrhythmia, cardiac conduction system disease, and skeletal muscle weakness were found. Genetic examination showed a pathogenic intronic variant in the desmin gene in the proband only. In the elder sister with palpitations, complex ventricular arrhythmia (>46 000 ectopic beats) was removed by radiofrequency ablation. This family case shows that complex ventricular arrhythmia may have different background within one family, genetic examinations should be performed in a person with broadest spectrum of symptoms.
