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

backgroundPatch-electrocardiography (ECG) enables prolonged ECG monitoring beyond 24 hours. However, diagnostic yield between patch-ECG and Holter monitoring needs further validation. We aimed to compare diagnostic capabilities of 14-day patch-ECG and one day Holter monitoring to detect cardiac arrhythmias.

methodsPatients with suspected cardiac arrhythmias but could not be diagnosed by 12-lead ECG were enrolled from two tertiary centers. Patch-ECG and Holter monitoring was attached simultaneously in enrolled patients. Primary endpoint was detection of major arrhythmias which was defined as atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), ventricular tachycardia, 2nd or 3rd degree atrioventricular block, sick pause (> 2 seconds of pause), sick sinus syndrome, tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome, and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

resultsA total of 147 patients were analyzed. Major arrhythmias were detected in 75.5% and 48.3% in patch-ECG and Holter monitoring, respectively (

conclusionPatch-ECG has higher diagnostic capabilities compared to Holter monitoring for diagnosis of various cardiac arrhythmias.
