Risk factors of left atrial appendage thrombus in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveTo investigate the risk factors of left atrial appendage thrombus (LAAT) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF).
methodsWe collected the clinical data of patients with non-valvular AF who underwent transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) at the Zhongda Hospital of Southeast University between January 2016 and June 2019. The patients were divided into two groups, LAAT and non-LAAT. We performed comparative analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and logistic regression analysis to estimate the risk factors of LAAT.
resultsA total of 442 patients with non-valvular AF were enrolled in the study. LAAT was detected by TEE in 20 cases (4.7%). Compared with patients without LAAT, patients with LAAT had higher CHA
conclusionEnlarged LA (anteroposterior diameter ≥49.5 mm) and non-paroxysmal AF were independent risk factors of LAAT in non-valvular AF patients.
