The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05239364 (Ablation of CONseCutive atriaL Tachycardia gUided by Ultra-high-DEnsity Mapping), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers.

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.

Abstract

Atrial tachycardias (AT) represent an increasingly recognized cause of morbidity and mortality. Over the past decade, the mechanistic understanding and therapeutic concepts guiding AT treatment have undergone rapid progress. Catheter ablation has become the most effective therapy for maintaining sinus rhythm in patients with regular AT, while mapping and ablation concepts and technologies have improved significantly. Accordingly, international cardiac electrophysiology professional societies aimed at outlining best practices on the management of regular AT, with a special focus on indications, timing, and technical aspects of AT mapping and ablation. After reviewing and discussing available evidence, including a systematic literature review and meta-analysis, an expert writing group summarized current knowledge and practice and has proposed strategies in the here outlined 10-Point Plan for SMART-AT care (Standardized Management and Ablation Roadmap for Treatment of Patients with Atrial Tachycardia).
