High-Risk ECG in Syncope: High Risk or Overstated?
Article in Journal of cardiovascular electrophysiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Proposed emergency department approach to syncope. After confirming true syncope and excluding immediately apparent diagnoses, assessment focuses on identifying patients at high risk of clinically significant bradyarrhythmia or other specific cardiac conditions requiring hospital admission, while avoiding unnecessary admission for isolated non-specific ECG abnormalities. The proposed recommendations and algorithm reflect the authors' interpretation of the available evidence and are intended to complement current ESC recommendations. Although informed by observational studies, they remain exploratory and have not yet been prospectively validated.
