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 present an unusual case of a geriatric patient with right-sided cardiac displacement and rotation (Pseudo-Dextrocardia) secondary to radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF) after radiation for carcinoma of the right breast. This patient with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) underwent cardiac resynchronization therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-D) for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Cannulization of the coronary sinus ostium was difficult, likely due to the significant cardiac displacement. However, after multiple attempts, it was eventually successful. The clinical manifestations, evaluation, and technical and procedural issues in this patient with an unusual anatomic variant are summarized.
