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

Stent thrombosis and lead perforation are important differentials for patients presenting with chest pain following recent coronary stent insertion and pacemaker insertion. In this report, we describe an unusual case of a 78-year-old male who presented with sharp chest pain one week after admission for posterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and subsequent Mobitz type II block, for which he received primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) to the left circumflex artery (LCx) and dual chamber permanent pacemaker (PPM) insertion. Computed tomography (CT) chest and CT coronary angiogram (CTCA), respectively, showed he had concurrent lead perforation and stent thrombosis. On balance, the cause of chest pain was likely lead perforation. This diagnosis was reached by having a high index of suspicion for both of these important post-procedure complications and investigating appropriately.
