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

Atrioventricular (AV) junction ablation (AVJA) is an acceptable strategy to control the heart rate in atrial fibrillation (AF) with a high procedural success rate. However, a small subset of patients pose a technical challenge with the standard right-sided approach. High-output His-bundle pacing has been shown to help localize the His bundle in a difficult-to-ablate AV junction. We report a case series of patients with difficult-to-ablate AVJA and present strategies to troubleshoot them. In this small series of patients, we found that high-output His pacing can be an effective alternative for successfully localizing the AVJA site. In this series, we also observed that an inability to achieve His capture from the right side can predict failure of ablation using the standard right-sided approach and the consequent need for a left-sided approach.
