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

A 66-year-old patient with a DR pacemaker for intermittent atrioventricular block presented with an electrocardiogram (ECG) showing some P waves non followed by QRS complexes, raising suspicion of device dysfunction. The device was equipped with a special algorithm (Managed Ventricular Pacing; Medtronic), and the observed ECG tracing was a normal consequence of the function of such algorithms. Being aware of the function of specific algorithms is essential to adequately analyze rhythms.
