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

Acute myocardial infarction (MI), particularly inferior MI, may be complicated by the occurrence of third-degree atrioventricular (AV) block. This block is usually temporary, but in some cases it will require a permanent pacemaker (PPM). We report a case of inferior MI and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the right coronary artery (RCA). The third-degree AV block persisted as a result of the no-reflow phenomenon after PCI on the RCA, only to resolve after a second PCI on the left anterior descending (LAD). Improvement in the perfusion of the AV node via the RCA after PCI on the LAD may be able to explain this finding. This case suggests that complete revascularization should be achieved before deciding on the implantation of a PPM.
