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
With the expanding use of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy, intravascular device infections are becoming more common. In the case of transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) infections requiring extraction for bacterial clearance, there remains no standard method to deliver temporary ICD therapy following device removal. We present a case of persistent bacteremia complicated by monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) electrical storm where biventricular ICD system extraction was performed and a temporary transvenous dual-coil lead with an externalized ICD generator was used to treat VT episodes prior to the re-implantation of a new permanent system. This case demonstrates the utility of a temporary externalized transvenous ICD system in the successful detection and pace-termination of VT, thereby reducing episodes of painful and potentially harmful external defibrillator shocks during the treatment of CIED infection.
