Association between ventricular arrhythmia (premature ventricular contractions burden and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia) and cardiovascular events in patients without structural heart disease.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) are common arrhythmias in cardiovascular clinical settings. However, the clinical significance of PVCs and NSVT in the absence of structural heart disease has not yet been fully elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PVCs, NSVT, and clinical outcomes. Methods: A study population of 26,117 patients was drawn from the Shinken Database established in June 2004. We enrolled 6332 patients without structural heart disease who underwent 24-h Holter monitoring and were registered up to March 2019. We focused on ventricular arrhythmias and cardiovascular events in patients without structural heart diseases. The study population was divided by the number of baseline PVCs (PVCs: <1000 ( Result: During the follow-up period up to 3 years, there were 16 deaths, 24 heart failure-related hospitalizations, 14 acute coronary syndromes, and 37 embolism events. The frequency of PVCs was not associated with mortality or heart failure. On the other hand, the presence of NSVT was significantly associated with heart failure hospitalization in a multivariate model (hazard ratio: 3.02; 95% CI: 1.03-8.83; Conclusion: In patients without structural heart disease, NSVT was associated with a higher risk of heart failure hospitalization. Patients with NSVT but no structural heart diseases require careful follow-up and management of heart failure risk factors.
