Implantable Loop Recorder Monitoring and the Incidence of Previously Unrecognized Atrial Fibrillation in Patients on Hemodialysis.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
introductionAtrial fibrillation (AF) is common in patients with kidney failure on hemodialysis (KF-HD). We determined both AF incidence and burden in patients with KF-HD using implantable loop recorder (ILR) monitoring
methodsPatients with KF-HD were enrolled and received an ILR. In 6 monitoring months, the incidence of AF events lasting ≥6 minutes was captured. Demographic, clinical, and dialysis characteristics were collected, and associations with incident AF were estimated using negative binomial regression models and expressed as incidence rate ratios and 95% CIs.
resultsWe enrolled 66 patients with KF-HD (mean age = 56 years, 70% male); 59 (90%) were without previously diagnosed AF. AF lasting ≥6 minutes was detected in 18 of 59 subjects (31%) without previously diagnosed AF and in 5 of 7 subjects (71%) with a previous AF diagnosis. Among the 23 with detected AF, episodes were present on 16% of patient days. Although 14 of 23 patients (61%) had AF on <5% of monitored days, the average duration of AF episodes was <1 hour in 13 of 23 patients (52%). Among patients with AF ≥6 minutes, 19 of 23 (83%) had a CHA
conclusionNew AF was detected in approximately one-third of patients with KF-HD. AF affects a substantial proportion of patient days and may be an underappreciated cause of stroke in KF-HD.
