A case report of unusually long episodes of asystole in a severe COVID-19 patient treated with a leadless pacemaker.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundExperience has been emerging about cardiac manifestations of COVID-19-positive patients. The full cardiac spectrum is still unknown, and management of these patients is challenging. CASE SUMMARY: We report a COVID-19 patient who developed unusually long asystolic pauses associated with atriventricular block (AV) block and atrial fibrillation who underwent leadless pacemaker implantation. DISCUSSION: Asystole may be a manifestation of COVID-19 infection. A leadless pacemaker is a secure remedy, with limited requirements for follow-up, close interactions, and number of procedures in a COVID-19 patient.
