Biventricular Impella Support for Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in a Patient With Severe Dilated Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2026. 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
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation in patients with severely impaired left ventricular (LV) function remains challenging because mapping often requires VT induction or sustained arrhythmia that may not be tolerated. Temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) can improve procedural stability in high-risk patients. We report a successful VT ablation in a 73-year-old man with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, severe biventricular failure, and recurrent VT, performed under fully percutaneous biventricular support using Impella CP and Impella RP (Abiomed) via transfemoral access. Hemodynamic stability was achieved only after the addition of right-sided support. The procedure reduced VT burden without device- or access-related complications.
