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

Background: Atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) detected by cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, including atrial fibrillation and thromboembolism. This study aims to identify echocardiographic parameters of AHREs in patients with CIEDs and explore the diagnostic value of strain metrics and structural parameters. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 140 patients with CIEDs, divided into AHRE and non-AHRE groups. Comprehensive echocardiographic assessments, including left atrial (LA) strain and left ventricular (LV) parameters, were performed. ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate predictive accuracy. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses identified independent parameters. Results: Patients with AHREs showed significant differences in echocardiographic parameters. Diastolic wall strain (DWS) was markedly reduced (0.29 ± 0.03 vs. 0.38 ± 0.05, Conclusions: Echocardiographic parameters, particularly DWS, LA strain metrics, and SDd, are important parameters in patients with AHREs. The integration of strain and structural metrics enhances diagnostic accuracy, offering valuable insights into AHRE pathophysiology.
