Review in Clinical cardiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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 the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia in adults. Catheter ablation (CA) is one of the most important management strategies to reduce AF burden and AF-associated complications. In order to stratify the risk of adverse events and to predict treatment success in AF patients undergoing CA, several risk stratification scores had been developed during the last decade. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the most important clinical risk scores predicting rhythm outcomes, electro-anatomical substrate and mortality in AF.
