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

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited arrhythmia syndrome characterised by adenergically mediated bidirectional and/or polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. CPVT is a significant cause of autopsy-negative sudden death in children and adolescents, although it can also affect adults. It is often caused by pathogenic variants in the cardiac ryanodine receptor gene as well as other rarer genes. Early identification and risk stratification is of major importance. β-blockers are the cornerstone of therapy. Sodium channel blockers, specifically flecainide, have an additive role. Left cardiac sympathetic denervation is playing an increasing role in suppression of arrhythmia and symptoms. Concerns have been raised, however, about the efficacy of implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy and the risk of catecholamine driven proarrhythmic storms. In this review, we summarise the clinical characteristics, genetics, and diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for CPVT and describe recent advances and challenges.
