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

Background: The substrate and ablation outcome in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) with or without right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is unclear. Objective: We aimed to investigate ablation outcome and substrate in ARVC patients with or without RV dysfunction. Methods: We retrospectively studied ARVC patients with (group 1) or without RV dysfunction (group 2) undergoing substrate mapping/ablation. Baseline characteristics and electrophysiological features were compared. The RV was divided into 7 prespecified segments. The scarred segment was defined as more than 50% of the area with bipolar scar. A multivariate regression analysis was performed to predict the risk of ventricular tachycardia (VT) recurrence. Results: A total of 106 patients were enrolled (57 in group 1 and 49 in group 2). There were more men (73.7% vs 32.7%, Conclusion: The presence of RV dysfunction was associated with a larger abnormal substrate in the endocardium and epicardium of the RV. A scar involving the inferior portion and TV is associated with RV dysfunction. Scarring in the superior TV of the endocardium can predict recurrence despite catheter ablation.
