[Cardiac implantable electronic devices and health-related quality of life].
Review in Herzschrittmachertherapie & Elektrophysiologie, 2019. 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
Patients, scientists and healthcare providers are increasingly interested in identifying interventions that not only reduce mortality but also improve symptoms, function and health-related quality of life. Health-related quality of life is a strong, independent predictor of mortality, cardiovascular events, hospitalization and treatment costs in patients with cardiac diseases. Remote monitoring of pacemakers has a positive effect on health-related quality of life and functional capacity and is equivalent to monitoring these patients in hospitals. Implantation of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator has a major impact on mental health, with the majority of patients experiencing the fear of ICD shocks as particularly detrimental to the quality of life. Variables, such as age, gender and duration of implantation should be considered in the assessment and planning of strategies for improving the quality of life of patients with electronic implantable cardiac devices.
