Slow left atrial conduction velocity in the anterior wall calculated by electroanatomic mapping predicts atrial fibrillation recurrence after catheter ablation-Systematic review and meta-analysis.

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: This study aimed to investigate and perform diagnostic test meta-analysis on whether slow left atrial conduction velocity (LACV) in the anterior wall calculated by electroanatomic mapping predicts atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after catheter ablation. Methods: Extensive literature search was performed on PubMed, SCOPUS, and EuropePMC up to June 5, 2024. The exposure group included AF patients with slow LACV in the anterior wall, while the control group included AF patients without slow LACV in the anterior wall. Slow LACV in the anterior wall was defined as LACV below study-specific cut-off points in m/s, measured by invasive electroanatomic mapping. The primary outcome of this study was AF recurrence, defined as AF/Atrial Flutter/Atrial Tachyarrhythmias lasting over 30 s at least 3 months after the blanking period postablation. Results: This systematic review and meta-analysis included seven studies, involving a sample size of 1428 patients with mean follow-up duration were 13 months. Patients with AF recurrence has slower LACV in the anterior wall (mean difference - 0.16 m/s [-0.18, -0.15], Conclusion: Slow LACV in the anterior wall was associated with AF recurrence after catheter ablation.
