[Electrocardioversion of atrial fibrillation: executive summary of the German Cardiac Society position paper].
Review in Herzschrittmachertherapie & Elektrophysiologie, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Electrical cardioversion (ECV) is an established and effective method for restoring sinus rhythm in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation. A position paper by the German Cardiac Society provides practical, evidence-based recommendations to guide clinical implementation of ECV and is summarized here. Key topics include appropriate patient selection, pre- and postprocedural management, anticoagulation strategies, sedation protocols, and technical considerations (such as electrode placement and energy levels). The document emphasizes the role of ECV as part of a broader rhythm control strategy. This paper aims to standardize and improve quality of care by translating current scientific knowledge and expert consensus into clear, practical clinical guidance.
