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

Our case demonstrates the safe and effective use of a leadless pacemaker in a heart transplant recipient. A man in his 60s with a history of heart transplantation with biatrial anastomosis 7 months prior presented to the emergency department after several syncopal episodes. Telemetry monitoring revealed a paroxysmal complete atrioventricular block. Given his immunocompromised state and prior dual chamber pacemaker extraction at the time of heart transplantation, the patient underwent successful implantation of a leadless pacemaker. Over the past 5 years since device implantation, the patient has not had any syncopal events nor has he had any device-related complications, such as infection.
