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

In the past decade, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) has undergone remarkable progress, emerging as a pivotal tool in various cardiological scenarios. Its capacity for tissue characterization, both with and without contrast agents, makes CMR the perfect tool to study the substrate of arrhythmia. This review highlights the potential role of CMR in electrophysiology (EP) and its role in the ablation of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. First, we will discuss the key aspects of ventricular arrhythmia ablation, while in the second part, we will review how CMR is changing the ablation of atrial arrhythmias. The potentiality of CMR in the pre-procedural, intra-procedural, and post-ablation assessment will be reviewed. In particular, CMR is capable of visualizing fibrosis and building 3D reconstruction. Furthermore, it is possible to merge a 3D-rendered shell of the heart into the EP room to guide radiation-free ablation through active or passive tracking. Finally, the accuracy of CMR in depicting ablation lesions and its ability to predict arrhythmia relapses will be discussed.
