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

This study aimed to investigate different echocardiographic parameters for predicting atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA). Echocardiography was performed in 110 patients (median age 65.8 years, 53% males) with TIA and no history of stroke or AF. All patients underwent monitoring with ECG and 72 h Holter-monitoring, and if no AF was found, an insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) was implanted and patients were followed for a median of 2.2 years. AF was found in 14 patients: five with Holter-monitoring and nine with ICM. AF patients had significantly larger left atrial (LA) volumes indexes compared to patients without AF (26.7 vs. 33.7 ml/m
