Mismatch Between Cardiac Perfusion, Sympathetic Innervation, and Left Ventricular Electroanatomical Map in a Patient with Recurrent Ventricular Tachycardia.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundRegional cardiac sympathetic denervation causes electrophysiological heterogeneity and has been found to be a predictor of potentially lethal VT. CASE REPORT: We present the case of 69-year-old patient admitted with recurrent ventricular tachycardia and a history of anterior myocardial infarction. In line with Tc-99m-MIBI-SPECT perfusion imaging, electroanatomical mapping revealed extensive LV anterior scarring as detected by low-voltage areas. Surprisingly, I-123-MIBG-SPECT showed an extensive deficit of sympathetic innervation inferior (mismatch) and anterolateral (match).
conclusionsCombination of electroanatomical mapping with tomographic imaging of innervation and perfusion might improve our understanding of the neural trigger of VT after myocardial infarction or substrate-based catheter ablation.
