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

We describe a patient where a pacemaker lead induced tricuspid valve changes that caused a right to left shunt through a preexisting patent foramen ovale resulting in significant hypoxemia. This event occurred years after the pacemaker had been placed. Surgical closure of the patent foramen ovale resolved the patient's hypoxemia and dyspnea. We also reviewed the previous cases published in the medical literature concerning significant hypoxemia from cardiac device-induced right to left shunts. Three of the four reported cased occurred 4 or more years after device placement. Therefore, late onset hypoxemia in setting of cardiac device placement without an alternative cause should raise the possibility of this complication.
