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

backgroundCardioneuroablation (CNA) has shown encouraging results in patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS). However, data on different subtypes was scarce.

methodsThis observational study retrospectively enrolled 141 patients [mean age: 40 ± 18 years, 51 males (36.2%)] with the diagnosis of VVS. The characteristics among different types of VVS and the outcomes after CNA were analyzed.

resultsAfter a mean follow-up of 4.3 ± 1.5 years, 41 patients (29.1%) experienced syncope/pre-syncope events after CNA. Syncope/pre-syncope recurrence significantly differed in each subtype (

conclusionsDifferent subtypes exhibit different event-free rates. The vasodepressive type exhibited the lowest event-free rate, but those patients with DC ≥ 8.4 ms might benefit from CNA.
