Peripartum ventricular tachycardia and PVC-induced cardiomyopathy: delivering optimal care when it's time to deliver.
Article in BMJ case reports, 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
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a rare but potentially fatal complication in pregnancy. We present a case of a pregnant woman with cardiomyopathy due to frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) and VT originating from the left ventricular outflow tract. After presenting late in the third trimester, the decision was made to deliver the fetus after 4 days of medication titration due to continued sustained episodes of VT. After delivery, the patient continued to have frequent PVCs and VT several months after discharge, and she ultimately underwent a PVC ablation with dramatic reduction in PVC burden and improvement in cardiomyopathy. Multidisciplinary planning with a pregnancy heart team led to appropriate contingency planning and a successful delivery. This case highlights how multidisciplinary management is best practice in pregnancy complicated by VT and the need for better diagnostic guidelines for PVC-induced cardiomyopathy in the setting of pregnancy.
