Relevance of Anatomical Significance of AV Nodal Structures within Koch's Triangle and Pyramid.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 exploration of the cardiac conduction system evolved over a century, marked by groundbreaking discoveries in atrioventricular (AV) nodal physiology. Atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT), the most prevalent regular tachycardia in humans, remains enigmatic despite extensive research. Detailed examinations of AV nodal anatomy and histology reveal variations in location and shape, influencing electrophysiological properties. Variability in AV nodal extensions and their embryological origins contribute to the complexity of the conduction system. Physiologically, the AV node plays a crucial role in modulating AV conduction, introducing delays for ventricular filling and filtering atrial impulses. Dual-pathway physiology involving fast and slow pathways further complicates AVNRT circuitry. Integrated approaches combining pre-procedural imaging with electroanatomical mapping enhance our understanding of AV nodal structures and high-definition mapping improves precision in identifying ablation targets. Electrophysiological-anatomical correlations may unveil the specific roles of conduction axis components, aiding in the optimization of ablation strategies. This review traces the historical journey from Tawara's pioneering work to recent integrated approaches aimed at unraveling the intricacies of AV nodal structures while emphasizing the importance of a multidimensional approach, incorporating technological advancements, anatomical understanding, and clinical validation in human mapping studies.
