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.
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
Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) has emerged as a novel physiological pacing method to reduce left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony due to ventricular pacing. Only lumen-less pacing leads (LLLs) with fixed helixes could achieve LBBAP previously, but recently, LBBAP has been performed using stylet-driven leads (SDLs). This study aimed to evaluate the LV dyssynchrony between SDLs and LLLs techniques in LBBAP. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated patients who underwent LBBAP with either SDLs or LLLs. We compared both groups' electrocardiogram (ECG) findings and LV dyssynchrony parameters derived from myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. LV dyssynchrony parameters consisted of phase analysis and regional wall motion analysis. We evaluated bandwidth, phase standard deviation (PSD), and entropy in the phase analysis. The time to the end-systolic frame (TES) was calculated in regional wall motion analysis using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). We also evaluated the maximum differences between segmental TES (MDTES), the standard deviation of TES (SDTES), and the difference in the TES between the lateral wall and septum (DTES-LS). Results: In total, 97 patients were enrolled. The success rate of LBBAP did not differ between the groups [SDLs: 47/48 patients (98%) Conclusions: LBBAP using SDLs was comparable to LV electrical and mechanical synchrony with LLLs.
