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

aimsTo investigate whether left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) can reduce the risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) compared with right ventricular pacing (RVP). METHODS AND

resultsPatients with indications for dual-chamber pacemaker implant and no history of AF were prospectively enrolled if they underwent successful LBBAP or RVP. The primary endpoint was time to the first occurrence of AF detected by pacemaker programming or surface electrocardiogram. Follow-up at clinic visit was performed and multivariate Cox regression models were applied to evaluate the effect of LBBAP on new-onset AF. The final analysis included 527 patients (mean age 65.3 ± 12.6, male 47.3%), with 257 in the LBBAP and 270 in the RVP groups. During a mean follow-up of 11.1 months, LBBAP resulted in significantly lower incidence of new-onset AF (7.4 vs. 17.0%, P < 0.001) and AF burden (3.7 ± 1.9 vs. 9.3 ± 2.2%, P < 0.001) than RVP. After adjusting for confounding factors, LBBAP demonstrated a lower hazard ratio for new-onset AF compared with RVP {hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 0.278 (0.156, 0.496), P < 0.001}. A significant interaction existed between pacing modalities and the percentage of ventricular pacing (VP%) (P for interaction = 0.020). In patients with VP ≥ 20%, LBBAP was associated with decreased risk of new-onset AF compared with RVP [HR (95% CI): 0.199 (0.105, 0.378), P < 0.001]. The effect of pacing modalities was not pronounced in patients with VP < 20% [HR (95% CI): 0.751 (0.309, 1.823), P = 0.316].

conclusionLeft bundle branch area pacing demonstrated a reduced risk of new-onset AF compared with RVP. Patients with a high ventricular pacing burden might benefit from LBBAP.
