Ventricular arrhythmias originating from different portions of the communicating vein of the left ventricular summit: electrocardiographic characteristics and 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
backgroundIdiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (IVAs) arising from different portions of the communicating vein of the left ventricular summit (summit-CV) are not a rare phenomenon. Whereas its electrocardiographic (ECG) and electrophysiological characteristics are not fully investigated.
objectiveThis study aimed to identify distinct ECG and electrophysiological features of IVAs originating from different portions of summit-CV.
methodsNineteen patients confirmed arising from summit-CV were included in this study.
resultsThe 19 patients were divided into proximal and distal portion groups based on their target sites in summit-CV. In the proximal portion group, 100% (11/11) VAs showed dominant negative (rs or QS) waves in lead I, while in the distal portion group, 87.5% (7/8) showed dominant positive waves (R, Rs or r) (p < 0.000). In lead V
conclusionsThere were significant differences in ECG characteristics of VAs at different portions of summit-CV, which could aid pre-procedure planning and facilitate radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) procedures.
