Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation: Substrates, Mechanisms and Treatment.
Review in Arrhythmia & electrophysiology review, 2025. 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
Idiopathic VF is a complex clinical entity that is characterised by an evolving scope over time. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy and electrical diseases represent a significant proportion of diagnoses attributed during follow-up in patients with an initial diagnosis of idiopathic VF. Stepwise diagnostic workup and management are of paramount importance. We proposed that idiopathic VF can be split into two distinct phenotypes, with potential overlap in an individual patient. In patients with Purkinje-related idiopathic VF, short-coupled ventricular ectopy can be documented, and ablation of the culprit tissue is a reasonable strategy to avoid recurrence. In patients with microstructural idiopathic VF, localised myocardial alterations can be unveiled by thorough electro-anatomical mapping and are amenable to a substrate-elimination strategy. Idiopathic VF is also a dynamic and evolving field, with promising research, new diagnostic tools and ablation techniques being developed in the near future.
