Underuse of Catheter Ablation as First-Line Therapy for Supraventricular Tachycardia.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Background Catheter ablation (CA) is a safe, effective, cost-effective technique and may be considered a first-line strategy for the treatment of symptomatic supraventricular tachycardias (SVT). Despite the high prospect of cure and the recommendations of international guidelines in considering CA as a first-line treatment strategy, the average time between diagnosis and the procedure may be long. The present study aims to evaluate predictors related to non-referral for CA as first-line treatment in patients with SVT. Methods and Results The model was derived from a retrospective cohort of patients with SVT or ventricular pre-excitation referred for CA in a tertiary center. Clinical and demographical features were used as independent variables and non-referral for CA as first-line treatment the dependent variable in a stepwise logistic regression analysis. Among 20 clinical-demographic variables from 350 patients, 10 were included in initial logistic regression analysis: age, women, presence of pre-excitation on ECG, palpitation, dyspnea and chest discomfort, number of antiarrhythmic drugs before ablation, number of concomitant symptoms, symptoms' duration and evaluations in the emergency room due to SVT. After multivariable adjusted analysis, age (odds ratio [OR], 1.2; 95% CI 1.01-1.32;
