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

Catheter ablation-based management strategies for the drug-refractory electrical storm (ES) have been proven to abolish acute ventricular arrhythmic episodes and improve long-term outcomes. However, this effect is highly influenced by multiple independently acting factors, which, if identified and addressed, may allow a more tailored management to each particular case to improve results. This review synthesizes existing evidence concerning ES outcome predictors of patients undergoing ablation and introduces the role of novel scoring algorithms to refine risk stratification. The presence of these factors should be assessed during two distinct phases in relation to the ablation procedure: before (based on preprocedural multimodal evaluation of the patient's structural heart disease and comorbidities) and after the ablation procedure (in terms of information derived from the invasive substrate characterization, procedural results, postprocedural recurrences (spontaneous or during non-invasive testing), and complications).
