Junctional Rhythms After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Incidence, Temporal Patterns, and Clinical Outcomes.
Article in CJC open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Conduction disturbances are common after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), yet the clinical implications of junctional rhythm (JR) remain poorly characterized. We aimed to assess the incidence, temporal characteristics, and clinical outcomes associated with JR occurring after TAVI. Methods: We conducted a prospective study including all TAVI patients at Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital between December 2023 and April 2025. Patients who developed JR were identified, and a propensity score was used to match them in a 1:3 ratio with patients without JR. Results: Among 616 TAVI procedures, JR was identified in 26 patients (4.2%). The mean time to onset was 41 ± 22 hours after TAVI, with a mean junctional rate of 71 ± 12 beats per minute. At baseline, no significant differences were present in clinical, electrocardiographic, or procedural characteristics between patients with vs without JR. The incidence of in-hospital high-grade atrioventricular block did not differ significantly between groups (11.5% vs 10.3%, Conclusions: JR after TAVI appeared to be an infrequent and transient phenomenon. Although pacemaker implantation was more frequent among JR patients, no excess of documented high-grade atrioventricular block was observed. The higher pacemaker rate appeared to be related primarily to precautionary management decisions. These findings require confirmation in larger multicentre cohorts.
