Transient appearance of Brugada-like Type 1 electrocardiogram pattern immediately after biphasic synchronized electrical cardioversion for atrial fibrillation: a case series.

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
backgroundST-segment deviation post-electrical cardioversion is a common finding amongst a significant number of patients. However, the mechanism by which this phenomenon occurs and its clinical implications are not fully understood. CASE SUMMARY: Four patients presented to our department with complaints of palpitations. They were found to have atrial fibrillation and were cardioverted using a synchronized direct current shock at 200 J. However, their telemetry immediately after the shock showed transiently an ST-segment elevation resembling Brugada Type 1 pattern. All telemetries normalized within 6 s from cardioversion. DISCUSSION: Through this report, we aim to raise mild concern about a possible safety issue related to synchronized electrical cardioversion with electrodes positioned in an anteroposterior fashion. Also, we try to give a pathophysiological explanation to this finding on the base of the knowledge accumulated through the years on Brugada syndrome.
