Patient Selection for Epicardial Ablation-Part II: The Epicardial Approach and Current Challenges Associated with Epicardial Ablation.
Review in The Journal of innovations in cardiac rhythm management, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Since their inception, percutaneous epicardial approaches have become increasingly common in clinical practice with the advent of new technology and the growth of catheter ablation for both ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias. In addition to identifying the arrhythmogenic foci, there remain challenges to successful epicardial ablation such as the choice of energy source, optimizing irrigation during ablation, and anatomic barriers such as epicardial fat and coronary vessels. The performance of continued translational studies to understand how each of these factors contribute to lesion formation will be essential to guide future advances in the field of epicardial ablation.
