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

of the manual counter-traction maneuver for suspected back-patch-related positional alerts during PFA. Cough-related body movement caused suspected cranial-side back-patch displacement and triggered CARTO positional alerts. Light cranial skin counter-traction was applied opposite to the apparent patch-shift direction without direct contact with the patch. Among 23 alert episodes, 22 were resolved, with a median correction time of 1.62 s and a median measured displacement of 11.69 mm. Pre- and post-alert anatomical maps showed no gross mismatch on visual comparison, although small localization errors cannot be excluded.
