Why is the Tilt Table Test Still Useful to Define who Should or Should Not Get A Pacemaker with Vasovagal Syncope?
Article in Journal of atrial fibrillation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The the tilt table test (TTT )has been used identify appropriate candidates for pacing in the majority of randomized trials. However, in recent years, it has been claimed-based largely on International Study on Syncope of Uncertain Etiology (ISSUE) studies-that the TTT demonstrates only a weak correlation with the mechanism documented by implantable loop recorder (ILR) at the time of syncope and thus confounds the correct diagnosis. Thus, cardiac pacing was supported in patients with recurrent vasovagal syncope (VVS) in whom clinically relevant asystole had been documented by ILR. In the present Editorial, we tried to discuss potential role of TTT in diagnostic workflow of VVS based on current data.
