Ischemic Stroke Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation have a Risk for Aortogenic Embolizations.
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2021. 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
We have a great interest in the article in Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis by Suzuki et al. titled Complex Aortic Arch Atherosclerosis in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation. The authors demonstrated that 38.7% transesophageal echocardiography-derived complex aortic arch plaques (CAPs) among 106 patients with acute ischemic strokes with atrial fibrillation (AF), suggesting that patients with acute ischemic stroke and AF often had CAPs. The atheromatous lesions at the aortic arch are one of the causes of ischemic strokes. The cause of acute ischemic strokes in patients with AF could not only be cardiogenic embolisms due to AF but also aortogenic embolisms due to CAPs. The possibility of concomitant CAPs should be considered for stroke patients with AF. Non-obstructive general angioscopy has the possibility to detect aortic plaques in the aortic arch more accurately than TEE and might help to diagnose atheromatous plaques and embolic materials in the aortic arch. Further studies are needed to elucidate the causes of ischemic strokes and are expected to improve the outcomes for acute ischemic strokes in patients with AF.
