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

backgroundThe clinical evaluation of a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with renal dysfunction has not been sufficiently studied. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DOACs for patients with a severely impaired renal function.

methodsThis was a retrospective and observational study in a single center. We enrolled 894 consecutive AF patients who were prescribed DOACs, and divided them into three groups based on their creatinine clearance (CrCl) value: CrCl ≥ 50 mL/min group (n = 634), CrCl 30-49 mL/min group (n = 207), and CrCl 15-29 mL/min group (n = 53). We evaluated the occurrence of major bleeding (MB) as the safety outcome and thromboembolic events (TEs) as the efficacy outcome during the follow-up.

resultsThe incidence of MB in the CrCl 15-29 mL/min group was significantly higher than in the other groups (CrCl ≥ 50 mL/min group, 0.8/100 person-years; CrCl 30-49 mL/min group, 1.2/100 person-years; CrCl 15-29 mL/min group, 9.0/100 person-years, log rank test,

conclusionThis study demonstrated that the degree of renal dysfunction was a significant prognostic factor for MB in AF patients receiving DOACs.
