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 is the most common arrhythmia following valvular heart surgery. Radiofrequence catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with prothetic mechanical mitral valve is feasible and relatively safe in experienced center. Implementation of real-time three dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography in atrial fibrillation can demonstrate on-line left atrial and left atrial appendix spontaneous echo contrast and thrombus. This condition makes the electrophysiologist allerted for the expected complications.
