Cardiac Magnetic Resonance in the Assessment of Atrial Cardiomyopathy and Pulmonary Vein Isolation Planning for Atrial Fibrillation.
Review in Journal of imaging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequently observed type of arrhythmia among adults, and its absolute prevalence is steadily rising in close association with the aging of the population, with its prevalence varying from 2% in the general population to 10-12% among the elderly. The relatively new concepts of 'atrial cardiomyopathy' and "AF-related atrial cardiomyopathy", along with the growing body of knowledge regarding remodeling, function, and tissue characterization, highlight the need for novel approaches to the diagnostic process as well as in the therapeutic guidance and monitoring of atrial arrhythmias. Advanced imaging techniques, particularly cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging, have emerged as pivotal in the detailed assessment of atrial structure and function. CMR facilitates the precise measurement of left atrial volume and morphology, which are critical predictors of AF recurrence post-intervention. Furthermore, it enables the evaluation of atrial fibrosis using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), offering a non-invasive method to assess the severity and distribution of fibrotic tissue. The possibility of an accurate CMR pulmonary vein anatomy mapping enhances the precision of pulmonary vein isolation procedures, potentially improving outcomes in AF management. This review underlines the integration of novel diagnostic tools in enhancing the understanding and management of AF, advocating for a shift towards more personalized and effective therapeutic programs.
