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

Careful technique is required in pacemaker implantation to avoid serious iatrogenic complications. A 70-year-old woman on an anticoagulant agent underwent pacemaker implantation. Nine months after implantation, a 35-mm pulsatile mass appeared just near the cranial edge of the generator. An iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm was suspected because ultrasonography showed communication with the blood stream through tiny artery. The resected mass proved to be a pseudoaneurysm. This was a rare case of iatrogenic delayed pseudoaneurysm appearing nine months later. It is essential to keep in mind the risk of pseudoaneurysm after pacemaker implantation, especially when the patient takes anticoagulant agents. <
