Pulsed Field Ablation and Neurocardiology: Inert to Efferents or Delayed Destruction?
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. 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
Background: The therapeutic use of irreversible electroporation in clinical cardiac laboratories, termed pulsed field ablation (PFA), is gaining pre-regulatory approval momentum among rhythm specialists for the mitigation of arrhythmogenic substrate without increased procedural risk. Though electroporation has been utilized in other branches of science and medicine for decades, apprehension regarding all the possible off-target complications of PFA have yet to be thoroughly identified and investigated. Methods: This brief review will summarize the preclinical and adult clinical data published to date on PFA's effects on the autonomic system that interplays closely with the cardiovascular system, termed the neurocardiovascular system. These data are contrasted with the findings of efferent destruction secondary to thermal cardiac ablation modalities, namely radiofrequency energy and liquid nitrogen-based cryoablation. Results: Conclusions: Limited histopathologic data exist for neurocardiovascular outcomes post-PFA. Neuron damage is not only theoretically possible, but has been observed with irreversible electroporation, however regeneration is almost always concomitantly described.
