Chemical ablation of the left ventricular endocardium reduces ventricular fibrillation inducibility in acute ischemic canine heart.

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
Objective: Ventricular fibrillation remains as the major cause of death in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Effects of trans-atrial chemical ablation of the left ventricular (LV) endocardium with Lugol's solution on ventricular fibrillation inducibility and ventricular conduction were examined in canines with acute myocardial ischemia. Materials and Methods: Chemical ablation of the LV endocardium with Lugol's solution or normal saline was preformed through a left atrial appendage in 14 canines 30 min after occlusion of the left anterior coronary artery. Results: Ventricular fibrillation threshold decreased after the coronary artery occlusion and increased after endocardial chemical ablation. There was a significant difference in the ventricular fibrillation threshold after chemical ablation between with Lugol's solution and with normal saline (25.9 ± 9.2 mA vs. 11.3 ± 2.7 mA, Conclusions: Chemical ablation of the LV endocardium with Lugol's solution injures endocardial conduction system and increases ventricular fibrillation threshold in the early phase of myocardial ischemia in canines. The procedure may be useful in suppressing intractable ventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial ischemia.
