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
Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are a common arrhythmia characterized by ectopic excitations within the ventricles. Accurately estimating the ablation site using an electrocardiogram (ECG) is crucial for the initial classification of PVC origins, typically focusing on the right and left ventricular outflow tracts. However, finer classification, specifically identifying the left cusp (LC), anterior cusp (AC), and right cusp (RC), is essential for detailed preoperative planning. This study aims to improve the accuracy of cardiac waveform source estimation and classification in 27 patients with PVCs originating from the pulmonary valve. We utilized an anatomical human model and electromagnetic simulations to estimate wave source positions from 12-lead ECG data. Time-series source points were identified for each measured ECG waveform, focusing on the moment when the distance between the estimated wave source and the pulmonary valve was minimal. Computational analysis revealed that the distance between the estimated wave source and the pulmonary valve was reduced to less than 1 cm, with LC localization achieving errors under 5 mm. Additionally, 74.1% of the subjects were accurately classified into the correct origin (LC, AC, or RC), with each origin demonstrating the highest percentage of subjects corresponding to the targeted excitation origin. Our findings underscore the novel potential of this source localization method as a valuable complement to traditional waveform classification, offering enhanced diagnostic precision and improved preoperative planning for PVC ablation procedures.
