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

Introduction: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a disorder of ventricular myocardial repolarization characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the electrocardiogram. It increases the risk of ventricular arrhythmias, which can cause syncope or sudden cardiac death. In this study, we study the genotype-phenotype relationships of patients referred to us with suspected arrhythmia syndrome. Methods: Seventeen cases and their twenty relatives were evaluated. Next-generation sequencing analysis was performed for 17 LQTS-related genes. Results: We detected seventeen single nucleotide variants (SNVs) with potential pathogenic significance in 26 of the 36 subjects analyzed. Conclusion: Current study pointed out that early diagnosis can be life-saving for patients and their families by taking family history and detailed examination. Also, we highlight the clinical heterogeneity of arrhythmia syndrome through a patient with a dual phenotype.
