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

backgroundVentricular tachycardia (VT) commonly occurs among patients with heart failure and can even cause sudden cardiac death. VT originating from the His bundle branch has been rarely reported. We present the case of a patient with VT from the His bundle branch. CASE SUMMARY: A 58-year-old female complained of paroxysmal palpitations and dizziness for approximately 6 mo. She had a history of fatty liver and cholecystitis, and carotid atherosclerosis could not be excluded from the ultrasound results. An evaluation of the electrocardiogram obtained after admission showed spontaneous conversion between two different morphologies. The possible electrophysiologic mechanism suggested that the dual-source VT originated from the same source, the His bundle branch. Finally, the His bundle branch was ablated, and a dual-chamber pacemaker was inserted into the patient's heart. No further VT occurred during the 3-year follow-up after hospital discharge.

conclusionThe diagnosis of VT originating from the His bundle is rare and difficult to establish. The results of this study showed VT originating from the His bundle based on a careful evaluation of the electrocardiogram, and the diagnosis was confirmed by an intracardiac electrophysiologic examination.
