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

Background: In recent years, fast-track protocols have been developed for transcatheter aortic valve replacement/implantation (TAVR/TAVI) to further simplify the procedure. Traditionally, intraprocedural rapid ventricular pacing for valve deployment is achieved via a transvenous temporary pacing wire inserted into the right ventricle. Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess the safety and efficacy of a temporary left ventricular pacing (wire pacing) technique during the TAVI procedure. Methods: In this prospective observational study, 307 consecutive patients undergoing TAVI with either the Edwards SAPIEN S3 ( Results: Left ventricular pacing was successful in 93.8% of cases ( Conclusion: Wire pacing is safe and effective, should be preferred for TAVI, and eliminates the risk of complications associated with transvenous pacing wires. Nonetheless, caution is advised when using this technique in patients with reduced ejection fraction or a high risk of conduction disorders.
