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

Background: Although there are many freezing protocols available, the optimal freezing dose is still not determined. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of different freeze strategies of CBA in the treatment of AF. Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase were searched up to 1st December 2022. Studies comparing the outcomes between single-shot technique and standard technique of cryoablation were included. Subgroup analysis identified potential determinants for single-shot technique procedure. Results: Our search resulted in 3407 records after deduplication. A total of 17 qualified studies met our inclusion criteria. Compared with standard technique, single-shot technique of cryoablation has a comparable rate of freedom from AF/AT(RR 1.00; Conclusions: Our study suggested that single-shot technique of cryoablation has comparable effective and safety outcomes for AF ablation compared to standard technique.
