Small balloon strategy associated with low pacemaker implantation rate after self-expanding transcatheter valve implantation.
Article in World journal of emergency medicine, 2021. 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
backgroundThis study aims to investigate whether small balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) reduces the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPMI) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
methodsThis was a retrospective analysis using data from our local TAVI database. Small BAV was defined as a small balloon size (=18 mm) pre-dilatation. Normal BAV was defined as a balloon size >18 mm. The primary endpoint was the incidence of new PPMI.
resultsOf 99 consecutive TAVI patients, five patients were excluded due to pre-existing permanent pacemaker. Patients in the small BAV group (
conclusionsThe small BAV strategy is associated with a low rate of permanent pacemaker implantation after transcatheter self-expanding valve implantation in this single-center observational study.
