1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background Sleep fragmentation and sleep apnea are common in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated the impact of radio-frequency catheter ablation (RFCA) on sleep quality in patients with paroxysmal AF and the effect of a change in sleep quality on recurrence of AF. Methods and Results Of 445 patients who underwent RFCA for paroxysmal AF between October 2007 and January 2017, we analyzed 225 patients who had a 24-hour Holter test within 6 months before RFCA. Sleep quality was assessed by cardiopulmonary coupling analysis using 24-hour Holter data. We compared cardiopulmonary coupling parameters (high-frequency coupling, low-frequency coupling, very-low-frequency coupling) before and after RFCA. Six months after RFCA, the high-frequency coupling (marker of stable sleep) and very-low-frequency coupling (rapid eye movement/wake marker) was significantly increased (29.84%-36.15%;
