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: Double-chambered left ventricle and perimembranous ventricular septal aneurysm are rare congenital heart abnormalities that often remain undetected until adulthood. Both abnormalities can be associated with conduction disorders requiring cardiac pacing. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of a patient with both a double-chambered left ventricle and a perimembranous ventricular septal aneurysm, undergoing left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) due to complete atrioventricular (AV) block. Case summary: A 31-year-old man with complete AV block was admitted to our centre, where diagnostic evaluation revealed a complex congenital heart defect: a large perimembranous septal aneurysm and a double-chambered left ventricle. Due to high predicted pacing burden, conduction system pacing with LBBAP was attempted. In addition to the standard technique, transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was used intraoperatively to facilitate safe positioning of the LBBAP lead. Finally, engagement of the conduction system was confirmed and preserved at the 1-year follow-up, with stable pacing parameters. Discussion: Conduction system pacing in congenital heart defects can be technically challenging due to complex anatomy. This case highlights LBBAP as a feasible physiological pacing option, even in complex and rare congenital heart defects. To minimize procedural risk, careful preprocedural multimodality imaging and intraoperative utilization of TEE were essential for optimal lead positioning in the setting of abnormal septal structures.
