Clinical and genetic spectrum of neonatal arrhythmia in a NICU.
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundNeonatal arrhythmia is a common complication that might be life-threatening or serious, but the genetic causes are unclear in most cases. The aim of this study is to investigate the genetic causes of neonatal arrhythmia in a NICU in China.
methodsNewborns who were diagnosed with arrhythmia during the neonatal period were enrolled from Children's Hospital of Fudan University between January 1st 2016, and December 31st, 2019. A neonatal gene panel was performed for each infant.
resultsIn total, 98 neonatal infants with arrhythmia were enrolled. Fourteen genes and a copy number change were identified and classified as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in 22 patients (22.4%), including 4 genes related to syndrome, 4 related to conduction, 2 related to metabolism, 2 related to structure, 2 related to respiration and immunity, respectively, and trisomy 21. Altogether, 6 genes (6/14, 42.9%) caused original heart structure or conduction abnormalities, leading to arrhythmia. Infants with ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, atrioventricular block and long-QT syndrome all had positive gene results. The gene positive rate among arrhythmic infants with congenital heart disease or severe heart failure was higher than that of infants without congenital heart disease or severe heart failure.
conclusionsThe genetic disorders associated with neonatal arrhythmia could be syndrome-, conduction-, metabolism-, and structure-related. Infants with non-benign arrhythmia, especially ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, long-QT syndrome, or high-grade atrioventricular block, have a higher rate of genetic abnormalities and should undergo genetic sequencing. Neonates with hereditary arrhythmias may have a higher risk of congenital heart disease or heart failure.
