Atrial fibrillation after lung surgery: incidence, underlying factors, and predictors.
Article in Kardiochirurgia i torakochirurgia polska = Polish journal of cardio-thoracic surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
introductionCardiac complications are the second most common cause of morbidity and mortality in patients subjected to thoracic surgery after respiratory complications. Postoperative arrhythmia is one of the most common cardiac complications in these patients. It leads to morbidity, increased hospitalization, and high costs for patients.
aimTo determine the incidence of atrial fibrillation after lung resection and determine the underlying factors and predictors of this problem. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe participants in this study were composed of all patients who were subjected to lung resection surgery in the past 4 years. The demographic data of the patients and possible postoperative complications, including the incidence of atrial fibrillation, were extracted from patient records. The statistical analysis of data was performed after data collection.
resultsThe incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in the present study was 7.6% (
conclusionsPulmonary malignant pathologies are more likely to develop POAF due to the need for lung resection and possibly mediastinal lymphadenectomy that stimulates the heart and pericardium and the vagus nerve.
