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

Cardiac resynchronization therapy is an effective and widely accessible treatment for patients with advanced, drug-refractory heart failure. It has been shown to reverse maladaptive ventricular remodeling, increase exercise capacity, and lower hospitalization and mortality rates. However, there still exists a considerable proportion of patients who do not respond favorably to the therapy. Tailored left ventricular (LV) lead positioning instead of empiric implantation is thought to have the greatest potential to increase response rates. In our paper, we focus on the rationale for guided LV lead implantation and provide a review of the non-invasive imaging modalities applicable for navigation during LV lead implantation, with special attention to the latest achievements in the field of multimodality imaging and image fusion techniques. Current limitations and future perspectives of the concept are discussed as well.
