Clinical Decision Making and Technical Approaches in Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Procedures: A Step by Step Critical Appraisal of Literature.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 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
The selection of an appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) type and implantation strategy involves a myriad of considerations. While transvenous ICDs are standard, the rise of non-transvenous options like subcutaneous ICDs and extravascular ICDs is notable for their lower complication rates. Historical preferences for dual chamber ICDs have shifted to single-chamber ICDs. Single-coil ICDs are preferred for easier extraction, and the use of the DF-4 connector is generally recommended. Cephalic cutdown is the preferred venous access technique, while axillary vein puncture is a viable alternative. The right ventricular apex remains the preferred lead position until further evidence on conduction system pacing emerges. Left-sided, subcutaneous ICD implantation is considered reliable, contingent on specific cases. A meticulous perioperative plan, including antibiotic prophylaxis and an antithrombotic regimen, is crucial for successful implantation.
