Apixaban: An Update of the Evidence for Its Place in the Prevention of Stroke in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation.
Review in Core evidence, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Oral anticoagulant therapy for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation patients has been remarkably changed by the introduction of non-vitamin k oral anticoagulants (NOAC). Apixaban was the third NOAC introduced to clinical practice. Aim was to outline the current evidence for Apixaban in stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation patients in the randomized trials and real-world data. Apixaban has been shown to be superior to warfarin in preventing stroke and systemic embolism and causes significantly less major bleeding based on large randomized trials. These data are confirmed in real-world studies. Apixaban has been shown to be safe and effective in atrial fibrillation patients in acute coronary syndrome or undergoing PCI in combination with a P2Y
