Atrial tachycardia in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot; its characteristics and catheter ablation outcome.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Congenital heart disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) now live longer. However, dysrhythmia becomes prevalent in adults with repaired TOF, especially atrial tachyarrhythmia. Objective: To identify the characteristics of patients who develop atrial tachycardia (AT) and the mechanism of the clinical AT and the induced one. Method: Seventy-seven patients with repaired TOF were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups (AT and non-AT). Clinical and electrophysiologic data were studied. Results: The mean age was 34 years. Twenty-three patients had AT (30 %). In AT group, the left ventricular ejection fraction was lower (58 ± 6 vs 62 ± 5; Conclusion: The patients with AT had biventricular dysfunction and bi-atrial dilatation. Aggressive induction and ablation of the induced AT may reduce the future AT recurrence.
