Apixaban in a Morbid Obese Patient with Atrial Fibrillation: A Clinical Experience Using the Plasmatic Drug Evaluation.
Article in Journal of blood medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We present the case of a 45-year-old man with atrial fibrillation and morbid obesity (weight 128 kg, height 168 cm, BMI 45.4) who was switched from Warfarin 5 mg once daily to Apixaban 5 mg twice daily because he did not achieve at least 60% of the time in therapeutic range. We performed serial determinations of apixaban plasma concentration (at 2, 6, 12, 24 hrs after intake) showing drug levels within reference range, even when the patient lose weight.
