Direct oral anticoagulants in the early phase of non valvular atrial fibrillation-related acute ischemic stroke: focus on real life studies.
Review in Journal of thrombosis and thrombolysis, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Strong evidence for the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the early phase of non valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF)-related acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is lacking, because this kind of patients were excluded from phase III randomized clinical trials (RCT) and ad hoc RCTs are ongoing. In the latest years a lot of real life studies on this topic have been published. The aim of our review was to focus on these. We reviewed the PubMed databases searching articles reporting on DOACs starting time within 2 weeks from AIS onset. We selected fifteen studies, eight with retrospective, six with prospective observational and one with a prospective, open-label, single arm design. Overall, 2920 patients (47.8% females) were included. In twelve studies median or mean age of patients was over 75 years. Mean or median NIHSS ad hospital admission was ≤ 12 in all studies. About one-third of patients (32.4%) received urgent reperfusion by systemic thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy. About one-fifth of patients (22.8%) had large infarct size. Median starting time of DOACs was reported in thirteen studies and it ranged from 2 to 8 days. About one-half of patients (45.9%) received a low dose of DOACs. In studies reporting on median or mean CHA
