Leadless pacemaker tine fracture and dislocation: two case reports.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 rate of leadless pacemaker implantation is increasing worldwide. To date, there have been few reports of leadless pacemaker dislocation and extraction. This article describes two cases of leadless pacemaker tine fracture and dislocation. One case was an elderly male, and the pacemaker was found to have fallen off to the right pulmonary artery one month after surgery, and a new leadless pacemaker was implanted; the other was an elderly female, and the leadless pacemaker fell off to the right ventricle 9 months after surgery. The leadless pacemaker was removed, and a dual-chamber permanent pacemaker was implanted. After leadless pacemaker implantation, regular programming should be performed to detect abnormalities early and perform clinical intervention.
