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

Brugada syndrome is ion channelopathy defined by coved type ST-elevation in at least one right precordial ECG lead. Patients may suffer from ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, which may cause syncope or sudden cardiac death. The majority of patients are likely to remain asymptomatic throughout life. A correct ECG diagnosis remains challenging. The implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) is the only established therapy to protect against sudden cardiac death. Thus, individual risk stratification is of major clinical relevance in primary prevention. The present article gives an update on current risk stratification and novel therapeutic options apart from ICD therapy.
