Noninvasive Stereotactic Radiation for Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia After Failure of Cardiac Sympathetic Denervation.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a novel treatment option for refractory ventricular tachycardia. We present a case of ventricular tachycardia, with epicardial origin located in large inferior infarct scar, that recurred despite treatment with multiple antiarrhythmic drugs, catheter ablation, and cardiac sympathetic denervation. Stereotactic body radiation therapy safely and effectively terminated the arrhythmia. (
