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 one of the most common arrhythmia complications of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The incidence of new-onset AF is 2.3-37 %, and it is an important predictor of a patient's morbidity, mortality, and prolonged hospitalization. Various risk factors for the development of new-onset AF after ACS have been identified, including: old age, higher Killip class, relevant history (e.g., hypertension), and enlarged left atrium. Insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms of new-onset AF have been provided by both experimental and clinical investigations and show that new-onset AF is multifactorial, involving atrial ischemia and atrial stretch, inflammation, autonomic nervous system activity, and hormone activation. An understanding of the mechanisms underlying new-onset AF complicating ACS can provide new insight of therapeutic importance.
