Energy loss by right ventricular pacing: Patients with versus without hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundRight ventricular (RV) pacing causes left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony sometimes resulting in pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. However, RV pacing for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is one of the treatment options. LV flow energy loss (EL) using vector flow mapping (VFM) is a novel hemodynamic index for assessing cardiac function. Our study aimed to elucidate the impact of RV pacing on EL in normal LV function and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients.
methodsA total of 36 patients with dual-chamber pacemakers for sick sinus syndrome or implantable cardioverter defibrillators for fatal ventricular tachyarrhythmias were enrolled. All patients were divided into two groups: 16 patients with HCM (HCM group) and others (non-HCM group). The absolute changes in EL under AAI (without RV pacing) and DDD (with RV pacing) modes were assessed using VFM on color Doppler echocardiography.
resultsIn the non-HCM group, the mean systolic EL significantly increased from the AAI to DDD modes (14.0 ± 7.7 to 17.0 ± 8.6 mW/m,
conclusionsRV pacing increased the mean systolic EL in patients without HCM. Conversely, RV pacing decreased the mean systolic EL in patients with HCM.
