Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundUnderstanding the dynamics of conduction velocity (CV) and voltage amplitude (VA) is crucial in cardiac electrophysiology, particularly for substrate-based catheter ablations targeting slow conduction zones and low voltage areas. This study utilizes ultra-high-density mapping to investigate the impact of heart rate and pacing location on changes in the wavefront direction, CV, and VA of healthy pig hearts.
methodsWe conducted in vivo electrophysiological studies on four healthy juvenile pigs, involving various pacing locations and heart rates. High-resolution electroanatomic mapping was performed during intrinsic normal sinus rhythm (NSR) and electrical pacing. The study encompassed detailed analyses at three levels: entire heart cavities, subregions, and localized 5-mm-diameter circular areas. Linear mixed-effects models were used to analyze the influence of heart rate and pacing location on CV and VA in different regions.
resultsAn increase in heart rate correlated with an increase in conduction velocity and a decrease in voltage amplitude. Pacing influenced conduction velocity and voltage amplitude. Pacing also influenced conduction velocity and voltage amplitude, with varying effects observed based on the pacing location within different heart cavities. Pacing from the right atrium (RA) decreased CV in all heart cavities. The overall CV and VA changes in the whole heart cavities were not uniformly reflected in all subregions and subregional CV and VA changes were not always reflected in the overall analysis. Overall, there was a notable variability in absolute CV and VA changes attributed to pacing.
conclusionsHeart rate and pacing location influence CV and VA within healthy juvenile pig hearts. Subregion analysis suggests that specific regions of the heart cavities are more susceptible to pacing. High-resolution mapping aids in detecting regional changes, emphasizing the substantial physiological variations in CV and VA.
