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

Patients with congenital heart defects have an increased indication rate for pacemaker systems and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD), which however are not designed for children. Therefore, the combination of selected materials is essential for long-term and safe therapy. Epimyocardial systems are the best option for neonates and infants, as well as patients with Fontan circulation who do not have systemic venous access to the heart. For most other patients, transvenous systems are advantageous because the leads and batteries last longer and are easier to adjust as the patient grows. To avoid vascular complications, only the thinnest leads should be used and broken leads should be explanted. Telemetric monitoring is urgently indicated for these patients in order to detect rhythm or system disturbances at an early stage.
