Right Atrial Appendage Thrombus in Atrial Fibrillation: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Review in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Atrial fibrillation (Afib) is the most common abnormal heart rhythm in adults and has become a significant public health concern affecting 2% to 3% of the population in Europe and North America. Left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombi is the source of 90% of left-sided cardiac thrombi in patients with Afib, which can cause stroke and other systemic vascular events. Right atrial appendage (RAA) thrombi formation in Afib is much less common but complications include pulmonary embolism or paradoxical migration across patent foramen ovale with risk of systemic embolization. The prevalence and subsequent clinical complications of RAA thrombi formation in Afib patients is not well understood. Management of RAA thrombi should be similar to that of LAA thrombi which includes delaying cardioversion and anticoagulating with warfarin therapy to achieve international normalized ratio of 2 to 3.
