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
Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) may represent the first manifestation of inherited cardiomyopathies, particularly in young patients without overt structural heart disease. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited myocardial disorder characterized by ventricular arrhythmias, fibrofatty myocardial replacement, and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. Pathogenic variants in the desmoplakin (DSP) gene have been increasingly associated with left-dominant or biventricular forms of ACM and inflammatory "hot phases" of myocardial injury. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 37-year-old male presenting with sustained monomorphic VT with right ventricular outflow tract morphology requiring synchronized electrical cardioversion. Electrocardiography in sinus rhythm demonstrated low-voltage limb leads and T-wave inversion in V1-V3. Echocardiography showed mildly reduced right ventricular function with dyskinesia of the RV free wall (TAPSE 17 mm, RV S Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of integrating electrocardiography, multimodality imaging, and genetic testing in the evaluation of VT in young adults. Identification of a pathogenic DSP variant confirmed the diagnosis of ACM and has important implications for arrhythmic risk stratification and family screening.
