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

backgroundIn patients with left posterior fascicular ventricular tachycardia (LPF-VT), the most critical determinant of successful radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the accurate identification of the antegrade and retrograde pathways (P1-P2) within the reentrant circuit. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of HD Grid-guided RFA on P1 potential detection, procedural duration, acute procedural success, and arrhythmic recurrence in patients with LPF-VT.

methodsIn this retrospective-cohort study, 25-patients with inducible tachycardia during electrophysiological study and a confirmed diagnosis of LPF-VT were included. Patients were divided into two-groups according to the use of the HD Grid Mapping Catheter during RFA: standard RFA group (Group-I) and standard RFA + HD Grid group (Group-II). Patients were followed for a mean duration of 24.8 ± 14.8 months after RFA.

resultsIn Group-II, the frequency of P1 recording during VT and, consequently, P1-targeted RF applications was significantly higher than in Group-I (92% vs 39%, and, p = 0.008). Acute procedural success was achieved in all 12-patients (100%) in Group-II and in 9-patients (69%) in Group-I (p < 0.047). During follow-up, LPF-VT recurrence occurred in 7-patients (54%) in Group-I and 1-patient (8%) in Group-II (p < 0.020).

conclusionIn this study, the use of the HD Grid Mapping Catheter during RFA for LPF-VT was associated with a higher detection rate of P1 potentials compared with the standard RFA approach. Given the critical role of P1 potentials in determining procedural success, this finding may suggest a potential relationship with shorter procedural and fluoroscopy times, higher acute procedural success rates, and lower LPF-VT recurrence rates in this patient population.
