Safety and efficacy of new anticoagulants in patients with heart failure.
Review in Current heart failure reports, 2013. 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
Heart failure (HF) is a common and growing health problem with high morbidity and mortality rates. Thromboembolism is a major contributor to the poor prognosis of HF patients. HF independently increases the risk of thromboembolism, and the high incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in HF patients further adds to the risk of thromboembolic events. The reviewed evidence for the efficacy of anticoagulation in HF patients shows a potential preventive effect of oral anticoagulation in thromboembolism-in particular, risk reduction for stroke-but this is offset by an increased risk of major bleeding. However, given the inhomogeneity of the HF cohorts, the diagnosis of AF warranting oral anticoagulation, the increasing awareness of the potential of bleeding risk assessment, and the advantages of the new oral anticoagulants, the future of thromboembolic prevention in HF patients could very well be brighter than it appears and help improve outcomes for this large group of patients.
