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

backgroundIn about 8% of survivors of sudden cardiac death, no structural or electrical heart disease can be identified. Some of these patients with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) present ECG markers of early repolarization (Early Repolarization Syndrome, ERS). The T METHODS AND

resultsWe retrospectively investigated 56 consecutive IVF patients (64.3% male, mean age 37.8 ± 12.9 years) who received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator for secondary prevention. Markers of early repolarization were present in 32.1% of cases. During a mean follow-up of 41.2 ± 35.8 months, 11 patients (19.6%) received in total 18 adequate ICD-therapies. Patients with VA recurrence showed longer T
