Serial electrical cardioversion for refractory atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response post ablation.
Article in International journal of emergency medicine, 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
The authors present the case of a man in his 50s who arrived at the ED with palpitations and persistent tachycardia a month after undergoing catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, and a week after electrical cardioversion in our ED. He was once again successfully cardioverted in our ED. The unique aspect of this case is how refractory his case was.This case highlights the limitations of current AF management strategies in achieving durable rhythm control, particularly following ablation. It underscores the importance of timely follow-up, individualized treatment planning, and consideration of additional interventions such as repeat ablation or atrioventricular nodal ablation with pacemaker placement in refractory cases. Serial ECV can provide temporary relief but should be viewed as a bridge to more definitive therapy.
