Comparative analysis of left bundle branch area pacing in patients with and without a history of open-heart surgery.

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
Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is widely performed in routine clinical practice. Achieving LBBAP requires deep insertion of the lead into the interventricular septum. LBBAP may be challenging in patients with a history of open-heart surgery (OHS) because of myocardial fibrosis associated with surgical trauma. This study aimed to report the feasibility and safety of performing LBBAP in patients with a history of OHS. Methods: This retrospective analysis included patients who underwent successful LBBAP between November 2020 and September 2024, with approval from our institutional review board. LBBAP was performed using a 3830 SelectSecure lead, and pacing parameters were assessed before and after implantation. Results: One hundred patients were analyzed, including 26 in the OHS group and 74 in the non-OHS group. The success rates of LBBAP were 84.6% in the OHS group and 90.5% in the non-OHS group ( Conclusions: LBBAP in patients with a history of OHS may present a slightly higher level of technical difficulty, but it is both feasible and safe.
