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
The goal of this study was to identify the spatial resolution requirements for accurate rotor detection and localization in human right ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Poor spatial resolution is often cited as a reason for the inaccuracy of cardiac mapping catheters in detecting and localizing arrhythmia rotors. High-resolution (0.7 mm) arrhythmia data from optical recordings obtained from human donor hearts (n = 12) were uniformly downsampled to lower resolutions (1.4-7 mm) to approximate the spatial resolution (4 mm) of clinical mapping catheters. Rotors were tracked at various subresolutions and compared to the rotors in the original data by computing F1-scores to create accuracy profiles for both rotor detection and localization. Further comparisons were made according to arrhythmia type, donor sex, anatomical region, and mapped surface: endocardium or epicardium. For a spatial resolution of 4.2 mm, the accuracies of rotor detection and localization were 57% ± 4% and 61% ± 7%, respectively. Arrhythmia type affected the accuracy of rotor detection (monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, 58% ± 4%; ventricular fibrillation, 56% ± 8%) and localization (monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, 70% ± 4%; ventricular fibrillation, 54% ± 13%). However, donor sex, anatomical region (right ventricular outflow tract, mid, and apical), and mapped surface (epicardium and endocardium) did not significantly affect rotor detection or localization accuracy. To achieve rotor detection accuracy of 80%, a spatial resolution of 1.4 mm or better is needed. The accuracy profiles provided here serve as a guideline for future mapping device development.
