Intracardiac Echocardiography: An Invaluable Tool in Electrophysiological Interventions for Atrial Fibrillation and Supraventricular Tachycardia.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Researchers have investigated ways to develop optimal imaging techniques to increase the safety and effectiveness of electrophysiological (EP) procedures. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is an advanced imaging tool that can directly visualize cardiac anatomical structures in high resolution, assess tissue heterogeneity and arrhythmogenic substrates, locate intracardiac catheters, monitor catheter-tissue contact and ablation injury in real-time, excluding intracardiac thrombi, and quickly detect procedural complications. Additionally, real-time imaging via ICE can be integrated with a three-dimensional (3D) electroanatomical mapping (EAM) system to reconstruct cardiac anatomy. This technique also promotes the development of zero-radiation EP procedures. Many EP studies and procedures have implemented ICE because it has several advantages over fluoroscopy and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). ICE-guided EP procedures can be performed under conscious sedation; esophageal intubation and additional anesthesiologists are not required. Atrial fibrillation (AF) and supraventricular tachycardias (SVT) are the most common tachyarrhythmias in clinical settings. A comprehensive understanding of critical anatomical structures, such as the atrial septum, fossa ovalis (FO), and great heart vessels, is needed for the successful catheter ablation of these arrhythmias.
