When Sepsis Mimics a Channelopathy: Brugada Phenocopy in a Patient With Urinary Tract Infection.

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
Brugada phenocopies are clinical entities characterized by electrocardiographic patterns identical to those of congenital Brugada syndrome but occurring in the context of identifiable, reversible underlying conditions. Distinguishing between these two conditions is crucial, as their management and prognostic implications differ substantially. We report the case of a 71-year-old man with no prior cardiovascular history or family history of sudden cardiac death, who was admitted for confusion associated with general deterioration. The admission electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed a type 2 Brugada pattern. Laboratory findings demonstrated a significant inflammatory response, and an infectious workup confirmed a
