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

Over the last few decades, catheter ablation has emerged as the first-line treatment for ventricular arrhythmias. However, detailed knowledge of cardiac anatomy during the surgery remains the prerequisite for successful ablation. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is a unique imaging technique, which provides real-time visualization of cardiac structures, and is superior to other imaging modalities in terms of precise display of cardiac tissue characteristics as well as the orientation of anatomical landmarks. This article aimed to introduce the various advantages and limitations of ICE in the ablation of ventricular arrhythmias.
