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

The purpose of the research was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the X-ray-free improved simple bedside method for emergency temporary pacemaker implantation as well as the practicability of the method in primary hospitals. Patients [including those suffering from sick sinus syndrome and third-degree and advanced atrioventricular blockage (AVB)] who needed emergency temporary pacemaker implantation from July 2017 to August 2020 in Hunan Provincial People's Hospital were selected. They were stochastically divided into a research group (95 cases) treated with the improved simple bedside method and a control group (95 cases) with X-ray guidance. The ordinary bipolar electrodes were used in both groups. On this condition, the operation duration, the first-attempt success rate of electrodes, pacing threshold, success rate of the operation, the rate of electrode displacement, and complications in the two groups were separately calculated. The comparison results of the research group with the control group are shown as follows: operation time [(18 ± 5.91) min vs. (43 ± 2.99) min, P < 0.05], the first-attempt success rate of the electrode (97% vs. 98%, P > 0.05), pacing threshold [(0.97 ± 0.35) vs. (0.97 ± 0.32) V, P > 0.05], success rate of the operation (98.9% vs. 100%, P > 0.05), the rate of electrode displacement (8.4% vs. 7.3%, P > 0.05) and complications (3.2% vs. 2.1%, P > 0.05). The emergency temporary pacemaker implantation based on the improved simple bedside method is as safe and effective as the surgical method under X-ray guidance, and the operation is simpler and easier to learn and requires a shorter operating time, therefore, it is more suitable for use in emergency and primary hospitals.
