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

This essay stems from a controversial recommendation present in the 2022 European Guidelines which indicated the appropriateness of considering an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implant even for still asymptomatic long QT syndrome (LQTS) patients deemed to be at high risk by the 1-2-3 LQTS score based on QTc and genotype calculated prior to the institution of therapy. As 15 years ago, we also had proposed, but never used, a risk score called M-FACT to identify patients at high risk of an appropriate ICD shock, we felt the responsibility of assessing what would have happened to our patients if we had rigorously used that score. We performed a study recently published in the
