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

Background: Impact of baseline-pool local impedance (BP-LI) on the lesion size remains unclear. Methods: Lesion size in the porcine left ventricular myocardium was evaluated using the STABLEPOINT™ catheter across various ablation settings and BP-LIs (100, 140, and 180 ohms). Results: A total of 184 lesions were created with different durations (15/30/60 s) at 30 watts or with different powers (30/40/50 W) for 15 s. Lesion depth became deeper (2.8/3.0/3.6 mm at 15 s; Conclusion: Lesion size decreased with lower BP-LI, and the relationship between the LI drops and lesion formation varied across the different BP-LIs. Adjusted %LI drops may serve as a more reliable parameter for predicting the lesion formation.
