Notched P-wave on digital electrocardiogram predicts the recurrence of atrial fibrillation in patients who have undergone catheter ablation.

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
Background: A notched P-wave is associated with the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the association between a notched P-wave and AF recurrence in patients who have undergone a catheter ablation for AF is unclear. Methods: We enrolled 100 subjects who underwent catheter ablation for AF (paroxysmal AF: 60 cases; persistent AF: 40 cases). Twelve-lead electrocardiography (ECG) was conducted, and the peak-to-peak distance in the M shape was calculated automatically using a 12-lead ECG analysis system. A notched P-wave was defined as a P-wave with an M-shape and a peak-to-peak distance of ≥20 ms in lead II. We compared the recurrence of AF in the patients with notched P-wave and the others. Results: The mean follow-up period was 12 ± 8 months, and a recurrence of AF was observed in 28 patients. The recurrence of AF in the notched P-wave group was significantly higher than that in the controls (log rank 5.14, Conclusions: Automatically identified notched P-waves with peak-to-peak distance ≥20 ms were associated with AF recurrence in patients who had undergone catheter ablation.
