Management of Atrial Fibrillation in the Emergency Department.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
purpose of reviewAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in adults and is responsible for 600,000 emergency department (ED) visits each year in the USA. Over 60% of these patients are admitted to inpatient units. The prevalence of AF is increasing, resulting in higher numbers of AF-related ED visits and inpatient admissions. These trends underscore the need for improvements in the efficiency of AF management in the ED. RECENT
findingsSeveral treatment protocols have been developed to address challenges associated with AF management in the ED, including: initiation of oral anticoagulant (OAC) therapy, cardioversion, and arranging for outpatient follow-up. Studies of these protocols have demonstrated that they can be utilized safely and effectively. Published treatment protocols for AF in the ED have been shown to reduce unnecessary hospital admissions and improve adherence to guideline-directed OAC therapy. Widespread adoption of AF treatment protocols could improve patient outcomes and reduce the costs associated with inpatient AF treatment.
