[Initial experience with cardiac contractility modulation devices in Latin America for the treatment of heart failure].
Article in Archivos de cardiologia de Mexico, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To describe the initial experience of cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) implantation in Latin America. Method: We present the first two cases in Latin America of patients with heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) not candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy in whom a CCM device was implanted. Results. Results: In both patients we described improvement of the 6-minute walk test, functional class according to the NYHA and LVEF. Conclusions: The modulation of cardiac contractility is currently a treatment option for patients with heart failure in functional class III-IV, with LVEF 25-45%, and a QRS < 130 ms who are not candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy.
