Empirical Ablation to Prevent Sequential Purkinje System Recruitment: A Novel Therapy for Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
We report 3 cases (mean age 48.3 ± 11.6 years) of idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF), in which a triggering premature ventricular complex leading to IVF could not be identified. All patients underwent posterior fascicle transection with empirical linear ablation of the mid-Purkinje potentials identified along the left ventricular interventricular inferior septum, and no ventricular fibrillation recurrence was documented in any of the patients.
