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

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac rhythm abnormality and represents a major burden, both to patients and to health-care systems. In recent years, increasing evidence from population-based studies has demonstrated that AF is a heritable condition. Although familial forms of AF have been recognized for many years, they represent a rare subtype of the arrhythmia. However, despite their limited prevalence, the identification of mutations in monogenic AF kindreds has provided valuable insights into the molecular pathways underlying the arrhythmia and a framework for investigating AF encountered in the general population. In contrast to these rare families, the typical forms of AF occurring in the community are likely to be multigenic and have significant environmental influences. Recently, genome-wide association studies have uncovered common sequence variants that confer increased susceptibility to the arrhythmia. In the future, the elucidation of the genetic substrate underlying both familial and more typical forms of AF will hopefully lead to the development of novel diagnostic tools as well as more targeted rhythm control strategies. In this article, we will focus on monogenic forms of AF and also provide an overview of case-control association studies for AF.
