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
aimsAn automated method for determination of short-term variability (STV) of repolarization on intracardiac electrograms (STV-ARIauto) has previously been developed for arrhythmic risk monitoring by cardiac implantable devices, and has proved effective in predicting ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and guiding preventive high-rate pacing (HRP) in a canine model. Current study aimed to assess (i) STV-ARIauto in relation to VA occurrence and secondarily (ii-a) to confirm the predictive capacity of STV from the QT interval and (ii-b) explore the effect of HRP on arrhythmic outcomes in a porcine model of acute myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS AND
resultsMyocardial infarction was induced in 15 pigs. In 7/15 pigs, STV-QT was assessed at baseline, occlusion, 1 min before VA, and just before VA. Eight of the 15 pigs were additionally monitored with an electrogram catheter in the right ventricle, underwent echocardiography at baseline and reperfusion, and were randomized to paced or control group. Paced group received atrial pacing at 20 beats per min faster than sinus rhythm 1 min after occlusion. Short-term variability increased prior to VA in both STV modalities. The percentage change in STV from baseline to successive timepoints correlated well between STV-QT and STV-ARIauto. High-rate pacing did not improve arrhythmic outcomes and was accompanied by a stronger decrease in ejection fraction.
conclusionSTV-ARIauto values increase before VA onset, alike STV-QT in a porcine model of MI, indicating imminent arrhythmias. This highlights the potential of automatic monitoring of arrhythmic risk by cardiac devices through STV-ARIauto and subsequently initiates preventive strategies. Continuous HRP during onset of acute MI did not improve arrhythmic outcomes.
