A Case Report of Coronary Artery Stenosis Induced by Ablation for Premature Ventricular Complexes.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Many patients with premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) do not experience symptoms. However, for those with frequent or symptomatic PVCs, medical interventions are available. If medications fail, radiofrequency catheter ablation may be performed. Despite careful attention to avoiding the coronary arteries during ablation, injuries may still occur. Here, we present the case of a 66-year-old Caucasian female with frequent PVCs causing worsening palpitations, chest pain, fatigue, and lightheadedness, who underwent elective PVC ablation and suffered catheter-induced left main coronary artery stenosis, necessitating subsequent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This case highlights a rare complication of cardiac ablation in the setting of PVCs and the rationale for clinical decisions made throughout the patient's hospital course.
