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

introductionThere is no prior report of an Aveir leadless pacemaker implantation into the atrial appendage via the internal jugular vein. CASE: A 44-year-old female patient with history of multiple ablations for sinus node dysfunction presented with symptomatic bradycardia. The patient had femoral veins <9mm, chronic pain at the femoral vein insertion sites, as well as a recent car accident with persistent leg pain due to femoral fractures. Placement of a leadless pacemaker was decided based on patient discretion. An Abbott Aveir AR leadless pacemaker was implanted via left internal jugular vein access without complication. Post device implantation showed threshold of 0.75V @0.4 ms, impedance of 340 Ω, Pwave of 4.4 mV. Six-month follow-up demonstrated a threshold of 0.5 V @0.2 milliseconds, impedance of 300 Ω and Pwave of 7.2 mV with 92 % pacing and predicted longevity of 12.7 years. DISCUSSION: The follow-up showed no complications in the patient. A similar approach may be feasible for other patients needing atrial leadless pacing, in which the transfemoral approach is not preferred.

conclusionImplantation of the Aveir AR leadless pacemaker into the right atrial appendage is feasible via the left internal jugular vein.
