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

Expertise in pediatric arrhythmia management is lacking in most low- and middle- income countries (LMIC). Strategies to disseminate education in pediatric electrophysiology are essential to meet this need. Children's Heartbeat was created to meet the growing demand for pediatric electrophysiologic consultation in LMIC. Children's Heartbeat is a virtual video-conferencing program that uses the Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes model to disseminate knowledge about pediatric arrhythmia management from pediatric electrophysiologists to clinicians in medically under-resourced regions worldwide. Monthly virtual case-based sessions are held with pediatric electrophysiologists and clinicians in medically under-resourced settings to discuss pediatric electrophysiology management. Since its inception, Children's Heartbeat viewership has grown exponentially to include 181 total registrants, 64 average monthly participants, and an additional 121 average viewers of recorded sessions. Attendees have expressed increased confidence in pediatric arrhythmia management. Children's Heartbeat has successfully provided pediatric electrophysiology consultation to medically under-resourced regions globally and have increased clinicians' confidence in caring for children with arrhythmias. Future directions include spreading the program to general pediatric and pediatric cardiology trainees and practicing pediatricians in rural parts of high-income countries and evaluating the direct impact of Children's Heartbeat on the management of arrhythmias in pediatric patients in LMIC.
