Incidence of atrial fibrillation and its effects on long-term follow-up outcomes in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
Article in Anatolian journal of cardiology, 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
objectiveThe incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) varies between 7% and 21%, and most of these studies were in the thrombolytic era. However, the frequency of new-onset AF during the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) period is still unclear. We aimed to investigate the frequency of new-onset AF and its effects on long-term clinical events in patients undergoing primary PCI.
methodsA total of 1,603 patients who were diagnosed with STEMI and underwent primary PCI were included in the study. All the patients were monitored for at least 48 hours after the procedure. The primary endpoint of the study was defined as new-onset AF during hospitalization.
resultsThe median follow-up period of our study was 44 months. New-onset AF developed in 85 (6.1%) patients. CHADs-VASc > 2, KILLIP > 2, and left atrial diameter were found to be independent predictors for the development of new-onset AF. In the AF (+) group, the all-cause and in-hospital mortality rates were found to be significantly higher. New-onset AF development in patients with STEMI was detected as an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality.
conclusionIn the era of primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, new-onset AF rates were found to be lower than the literature data. In addition, new-onset AF was found to be a predictor of in-hospital mortality, and deaths occurred mostly in the early period. Therefore, close follow-up of these patients in the early period and re-evaluation in terms of AF burden when the patient becomes stable are important.
