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

More than 150, 000 patients undergo ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) each year.Current guidelines recommend oral anticoagulation in all patients undergoing AF ablation. A large number of patients undergoing cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are on long-term oral anticoagulation. These patients are at increased risk for thromboembolism with interruption of oral anticoagulation. Due to the increased risk for bleeding complications during the procedure combined with the need to prevent thromboembolism, periprocedural management of anticoagulation in these patients can be challenging. In this article we review the current evidence for periprocedural management of oral anticoagulation in patients undergoing ablation and CIED implantation.
