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

Non-invasive stereotactic radioablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) substrate has been proposed as a novel treatment modality for patients not eligible for catheter-based ablation or in whom this approach has failed. Initial clinical results are promising with good short-term efficacy in VT suppression and tolerable side effects. This article reviews the current clinical evidence for cardiac radioablation and gives an overview of important preclinical and translational results. Practical guidance is provided, and a cardiac radioablation planning and treatment workflow based on expert consensus and the authors' institutional experience is set out.
