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

Arrhythmias are among the most common late complications in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) and a frequent reason for hospital admission. Both, supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, not only cause debilitating symptoms, but may be life-threatening by increasing risk of stroke, causing or worsening heart failure and being associated with sudden death. Substrate and risk for arrhythmia differs widely between congenital defects with specific arrhythmias being much more common in some patients than others. Atrial macroreentrant arrhythmias are particularly frequent in patients with atrial septal defects and repair that involves atrial incisions including patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and atrial switch. Accessory pathways and related arrhythmias are often associated with Ebstein's anomaly and congenitally corrected TGA. Monomorphic ventricular arrhythmias occur in patients with ventricular incisions, namely patients with Tetralogy of Fallot. Changes in surgical repair techniques influence arrhythmia prevalence and substrate as well as anatomical access for catheter ablation procedures. In addition, epidemiologic changes associated with improved long-term survival will further increase the prevalence of atrial fibrillation in ACHD. This article summarizes current understanding of prevalence of specific arrhythmias, underlying mechanisms, medical and interventional treatment options and their outcome in ACHD.
