Impact of the Distance From the Cavotricuspid Isthmus to the Right Coronary Artery on First-Pass Conduction Block During Cryoablation for Atrial Flutter.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 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: Cryoablation is an alternative to radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent atrial flutter (AFL). However, the anatomical features that make achieving a CTI conduction block using cryoablation challenging remain unclear. Methods: This study included 100 consecutive patients who underwent CTI cryoablation for AFL. Patients were divided into two groups: the first-pass group, in which first-pass CTI conduction block was achieved ( Results: The distance from the CTI to the right coronary artery (RCA) in the first-pass group was significantly longer than that in the non-first-pass group ( Conclusions: The distance from the CTI to the RCA was significantly associated with achieving first-pass CTI conduction block by cryoablation. The warming effect of the RCA blood flow might prevent the CTI conduction block during cryoablation.
