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

The era of pulsed field ablation (PFA) has yielded considerable improvements in procedural safety for atrial fibrillation. However, given the fixed size and depth of the electrical field in first generation PFA modalities, ablation of substrates beyond the pulmonary veins with heterogeneity of tissue thickness can be challenging. Sequential PFA and radiofrequency (RF) from a focal tip catheter may offer an advantage in these challenging substrates with potential to deliver safe and deeper lesions. In our report, we describe the first in human experience of sequential colocalized PFA and RF lesions with a 3.5-mm investigational dual energy catheter.
