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

We aimed to evaluate trends and disparities in mortality from ventricular tachycardia in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease. We performed cross-sectional analyses using publicly available data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research database. We identified a total of 7025 deaths from ventricular tachycardia between the years 2007 and 2020. Overall, age-adjusted mortality rates increased from 0.22 in 1999 to 0.32 in 2020 (p < .05). Black female and male adults had higher age-adjusted mortality rates compared to White female and male adults, respectively (p < .05). Disproportionate age-adjusted mortality rates among male populations and Southern residents were also observed. This study demonstrated an increase in deaths related to ventricular tachycardia since 2007. Significant differences in mortality exist across racial, gender, and geographic subgroups.
