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

Aortic root perforation is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of transseptal puncture (TSP). We report the case of a 34-year-old male with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome who sustained inadvertent aortic root access during an electrophysiologic study and left-sided accessory pathway ablation. The complication led to tamponade and cardiac arrest but was successfully managed percutaneously using a KONAR-Multifunctional occluder device. The patient subsequently underwent successful ablation and had an uneventful recovery. This case highlights key steps for timely recognition, hemodynamic stabilization, and definitive percutaneous closure of aortic perforation. It also provides important technical and anatomical considerations for the safe performance of TSP in electrophysiology.
