Chronic ischaemic heart disease and rivaroxaban: which patients derive the greatest benefit?
Article in European heart journal supplements : journal of the European Society of Cardiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Patients with established cardiovascular (CV) disease may suffer further CV events, despite receiving optimal medical treatment. Although platelet inhibition plays a central role in the prevention of new events, the use of anticoagulant therapies to reduce events in atheromatous disease has, until recently, been overlooked. The recent Rivaroxaban for the Prevention of Major Cardiovascular Events in Coronary or Peripheral Artery Disease (COMPASS) trial showed that rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily given with low-dose aspirin reduces the incidence of the composite endpoint of stroke, heart attack, and death in patients with stable coronary artery disease. Although there are some limitations to the study, COMPASS offers promising conclusions and may change secondary prevention in patients with stable CV disease. This article reviews the results of the COMPASS study and how these results may affect patient management in everyday clinical practice.
