Ring Char Formation During High-Power, Short-Duration Ablation Using an Irrigated Six-Hole Contact Force Sensing Tip Catheter.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
During circumferential ablation of the right pulmonary veins (PVs), high-power, short-duration (HPSD) ablation at the anterior wall of the right PVs, corresponding to the left atrial septal side, resulted in an abrupt impedance increase from 120 to 180 Ω, occurring 11 s after RF delivery initiation (A). After an abrupt impedance rise, withdrawal of the ablation catheter from the long sheath revealed a circumferential thrombus adhering directly above the irrigation holes at the catheter tip (B). The catheter tip after thrombus removal is shown in (C), and the ring-shaped thrombus that adhered to the catheter tip is displayed in (D).
