Association with left atrial volume index and long-term prognosis in patients without systolic dysfunction nor atrial fibrillation: an observational study.
Observational study in Heart and vessels, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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 prognostic impact of left atrial size in patients without systolic dysfunction nor atrial fibrillation (AF) has not been fully elucidated in Japan. We retrospectively analyzed data obtained from 4444 consecutive patients who had undergone both scheduled transthoracic echocardiography and electrocardiography in 2013 in our hospital. Those who presented with a history of myocardial infarctions, severe and moderate valvular diseases, low ejection fraction (< 50%), and documented AF, and without data on LA volume index (LAVI) or tissue Doppler early diastolic mitral annular velocity were excluded. We defined high LAVI as a value > 34 ml/m
