ReviewJournal of atrial fibrillation
Atrial Septal Defect and Atrial Fibrillation: The Known and Unknown.
Review in Journal of atrial fibrillation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common complication in patients with atrial septal defects (ASDs). The link between AF and ASD is fairly complex and entails modifications in electrophysiologic, contractile and structural properties, at the cellular and tissue level, of both atria, mainly due to chronic atrial stretch and dilation. Surgical repair or percutaneous closure of ASDs are equally effective in reducing mortality and symptoms but limited in preventing or curbing AF, unless combined with an arrhythmia-specific procedure. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) have improved the safety and success of the above procedures. Finally, clearer understanding of the pathophysiology of AF in patients with ASD (and CHF, in general) has led to target-specific advances in medical management.
