Case report demonstrating novel approaches for leadless pacemaker implantation in the single ventricle heart.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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: The congenital heart disease population can provide a unique set of challenges during pacemaker implant, including the necessity of transvenous leads in a young group of patients. In this case report we demonstrate how leadless pacemakers may be used as an option in patients with Fontan circulation. Case Summary: We present two cases of novel use of the Abbott AVEIR™ leadless pacemaker, including the first reported in person trans-baffle delivery of this device and implantation into a single ventricle heart. Our cases are a 30-year-old male with single ventricle physiology and Fontan circulation, found incidentally to have complete heart block (CHB) and a 48-year-old female with a Fontan circulation who had CHB and a history of syncope. These cases demonstrate a variety of venous access routes and add to the existing data of leadless pacemaker implantation in single ventricle physiology. The very long battery life of these devices make them ideal for patients with difficult venous access with bradycardia pacing requirement with low pacing burden. Discussion: Leadless pacemakers offer a valuable alternative to transvenous pacing leads for providing bradycardia pacing support in this patient population.
