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

Pacemakers are effective treatments for a variety of bradyarrhythmias. Cardiac pacemakers generally consist of a pulse generator and one or more leads. The conventional temporary transvenous ventricular cardiac pacemaker utilizing a passive fixation lead is commonly associated with multiple complications such as increased infection rate, lead dislodgement, venous thrombosis, longer duration of hospital stay, and atrioventricular (AV) dyssynchrony. On the other hand, temporary permanent pacemakers (TPPM) utilize active fixation leads; hence, they provide lower capture thresholds, reliable pacing, lower rates of displacement, and fewer pacemaker-related infections. Here, we present a case of TPPM aiding AV synchrony restoration in complete heart block accompanying right ventricular (RV) infarction with refractory cardiogenic shock. Pacemakers are effective treatments for a variety of bradyarrhythmias. Cardiac pacemakers generally consist of a pulse generator and one or more leads. We present a case of TPPM aiding AV synchrony restoration in complete heart block accompanying RV infarction with refractory cardiogenic shock. TPPM pacing is a safe and effective technique for temporary bridge pacing to prevent AV dyssynchrony in hemodynamically unstable patients with cardiogenic shock from RV infarction and complete heart block. It also hastens recovery compared to a traditional single-chamber temporary pacemaker.
