Incremental Value of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Diameter in Risk Assessment of Chronic Heart Failure Patients with Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: Development of RVOTD-ICD Benefit Score in Real-World Setting.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. 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
Background: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) remains the basic reference for the prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) patients, while right ventricular (RV) abnormalities have now been associated with SCD risk. A modified benefit assessment tool incorporating RV function parameters in consideration of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) insertion should be taken into account. Methods: We enrolled 954 chronic heart failure (CHF) patients (age 58.8 Results: A higher RVOTD level was significantly associated with an increased risk of VT/VF (per 1 standard deviation (SD) increase, hazard ratio [HR], 1.22; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.11-1.33; Conclusions: Higher RVOTD was associated with significantly increased risk of sustained VT/VF in CHF patients. A simple risk assessment tool incorporating RVOTD (RVOTD-ICD benefit score) could be generalized to ICD populations, and optimize the decision-making process of ICD implantation.
