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 a case of a 67-year-old male with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction due to a previous myocardial infarction, slow-conducting atrial fibrillation with an indication of pacemaker implantation, and sustained ventricular tachycardia, requiring defibrillation support in prevention of sudden cardiac death. Current guidelines recommend biventricular over conventional right ventricular pacing for patients with ejection fraction <40 % and atrioventricular conduction disorders in either sinus rhythm or atrial fibrillation, but in patients with a narrow baseline QRS complex, biventricular pacing still induces a form of electrical dyssynchrony. In our case we combined the advantages of conduction system pacing in form of left bundle branch area pacing, in order to prevent further left ventricular deterioration due to newly induced dyssyncrony, and also defibrillation support, using a single-chamber defibrillator with a DF-1/IS-1 connection.
