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

backgroundBrugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited disease characterized by an electrocardiogram (ECG) with a coved-type ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads (V1-V3), which predisposes to sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to polymorphic ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation in the absence of structural heart disease. We report the case of a 29-year-old man with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. BrS is associated with a high incidence of SCD in adults, and increasing the awareness of BrS and prompt recognition of the Brugada ECG pattern can be lifesaving. CASE SUMMARY: A 29-year-old man suffered from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and after defibrillation, his ECG demonstrated a coved-type elevated ST segment in V1 and V2. These findings were compatible with type 1 Brugada pattern, and ECG of his brother showed a type 2 Brugada pattern. The diagnosis was BrS, NYHF IV, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, sepsis, and hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. The patient had no arrhythmia episodes after discharge throughout a follow-up period of 36 mo.

conclusionIncreasing awareness of BrS and prompt recognition of the Brugada ECG pattern can be lifesaving.
