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

Acquired long QT syndrome is typically caused by medications, electrolyte disturbances, bradycardia, or catastrophic central nervous system events. We report a case of myocardial infarction-related acquired long QT syndrome in a 58-year-old woman that had no clear cause and progressed to torsades de pointes requiring treatment with isoproterenol and magnesium. Despite negative results of DNA testing against a known panel of genetic mutations and polymorphisms associated with long QT syndrome, the patient's family history of fatal cardiac disease suggests a predisposing genetic component. This report serves to remind clinicians of this potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmia after myocardial infarction.
