Longevity and Innovation: Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in a 100-Year-Old Patient With Severe Heart Failure-A 4-Year Follow-Up.
Article in Case reports in cardiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been shown to improve outcomes in patients with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) and electrical dyssynchrony. This case report presents a 100-year-old male with a history of atrial fibrillation (AF), left bundle branch block (LBBB), and ischemic heart disease, who was admitted with chest pain and episodes of bradycardia. After careful consideration, CRT-P was successfully implanted. The patient's condition was closely monitored postimplantation, and a 4-year follow-up revealed significant symptomatic improvement and functional independence. This report highlights the importance of CRT-P in improving quality of life and managing heart failure in very elderly patients.
