Association between self-reported physical activity and incident atrial fibrillation in a young Korean population.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
The association between physical activity (PA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) remains unclear. We thus investigated association of PA with the development of AF. Type and duration data for PA were acquired from 211,992 AF-free individuals using the validated Korean version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short From between March 2002 and December 2014. Individuals were divided into four groups according to self-reported PA level and previous international PA guidelines: no PA with a sedentary lifestyle, insufficient PA, sufficient PA, and health-enhancing PA. AF was diagnosed by annual 12-lead electrocardiogram. During a median follow-up of 5.6 years, AF occurred in 304 participants (annual AF incidence rate 2.5/10,000 person-years). After adjusting for age and sex, PA level was not associated with AF incidence (P for trend = 0.26). The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for incidental AF was 1.00 (0.74-1.37) for the insufficient PA group, 1.34 (0.91-1.97) for the sufficient PA group, and 1.27 (0.72-2.23) for the health-enhancing PA group compared with the no PA group (P for trend = 0.18). Thus, our study does not support an association between the risk of AF and PA level in a young Korean population.
