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

Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an important risk for adults with repaired coarctation of the aorta (rCoA). We aimed determine if there are clinical risk factors for SCD in adults with rCoA. Methods and results: SCD events and clinical data from all adults with rCoA at a tertiary care center (2007-2017) were evaluated. In 167 adults with rCoA (39 ± 11 years old, 75 (45%) female) SCD occurred in 8 (5%) (vs. age-matched adults 0.9%). Those with SCD demonstrated significant QTc prolongation (QTc: 479 ± 16 vs. 434 ± 30 msec, p < 0.001). Overall, adults with rCoA and a prolonged sex-normative QTc interval had a 12-fold increased risk of SCD (x Conclusions: There is an unanticipated high burden of SCD in adults with rCoA, occurring in men at younger age than women, suspicious for primary electrophysiologic dysfunction. Future investigation of sex-specific SCD risk in rCoA is important to better understand this disease and its late phenotype.
